Shhhhhhh. Pst. Don't go make me all a-blushin'. Head's a purple haze already. Ha ha ha, my big fat book - I could always endeavour a magical realism retelling of the Sears Catalogue or the Frankfurt City phonebook, yes. But I feel all the books have been written, you know?

But not by you, Liriaen, not by you. Sigh. Therein lies the difference, and the attraction. You do not see how beautiful a writer you are.

Sigh.

I shall never give up. I will stay quiet about it, but I will never give up in the hopes...for if you think there is no point, why the hell am I, a much lesser-skilled writer, even trying?

Well, no, I probably don't see it, or see it one step removed; when I look back at some pieces I go WOW, I DID THAT? But those are few. And I don't really have what we call "Sendungsbewußtsein" in German. No sense of mission, because I don't really think I've anything to tell the world. And writing and scripting for money (i.e., that *is* my job) sometimes puts a huge dent in my writing-for-fun.

But thank you for the kind words. You know, I have my serial obsessions, and they ride me hard and leave me panting, and if a handful of others enjoy them, too - fabulous. I certainly wouldn't want to see them dragged into the light of day, which invariably would put me in a defensive position.

Well, I am one of the handful who enjoys what you write for fun, so am glad you fully intend to keep on doing that.
