I need to confess something here. I know not many people read this, but I just want to get this off my chest.
I have a furious and often-overwhelming urge to write one-liners. Facebook statuses, away messages, blog posts — several times an hour, I think of something that seems witty or deep that needs to be said right now. Thankfully for you all, I tend to keep this logorrhea reigned in most of the time. It doesn’t really enrich anyone’s lives if I splash the phrase “the salted tears of the beast that ends the world” onto my blog.
…Actually, that sounds kinda cool.
What bothers me most, I think, is that I can only really judge the quality of my writing in retrospect. I’m not confident in my judgment of the worth of an overnight away-message until I read it the next morning. I usually want to write when I’m on an odd sleep schedule (i.e. not sleeping) and that’s when I have the least ability to be objective.
Hell, the meager posts of the last three months have all occurred in the AM. I am not a morning person, so AM anything means I didn’t sleep that night.
