I have a trilogy of novels in various stages of development--the first is done and needs only to be typed out and shopped for a suitable home. That
type of writing is excruciating and exhilarating in equal measure, otherwise I wouldn't do it. First thought best thought my ass, there's a fine line between self-expression and self-flagellation, point being a little concise editing never hurt any writer.
My poetry is hit-miss and while the journal style writing I do for stuff like "No Setlist" is fine, I've discovered other people enjoy
reading it more than I like churning it out. Probably because I'm just telling you about times I've already lived through rather than creating my own
fictional universe and populating it.
