Where'd You Go, Bernadette
Oct. 13th, 2015 11:36 amSeattle was fun.
I drank a lot, ate a lot, and bought a lot of flannel.
I also now have a bunch of new followers on Twitter. I need to sit down with my cell phone camera gallery and the stack of business cards people gave me and try to match faces to names and Twitter handles. For some reason this is stressing me out, probably because I hate making value judgments about who to follow and who to ignore.
I took a short break on Saturday afternoon to wander over to the waterfront park behind Pike Place Market. While I sat there getting mildly stoned, I sketched out an elaborate plot map for a Wind Waker fic based on The Odyssey. Maybe I'll write that fic one day, but right now it just seems pretentious.
Over the weekend I got a comment on one of my stories pointing out an amusing typo. I try to go through everything every few months to edit and fix things, but stuff always slips through. I'm sure I look like a complete asshole in the current ongoing Zelda fic, inserting pseudo-philosophical tracts alongside ridiculous typographical errors. I try not to let the knowledge of my persistent incompetence as a writer bother me too much, but it does.
Not gonna stop writing though.
