Part of me wants to compile some essays- and I use the term loosely, as my Chinese and Japanese inspirations would- and maybe make an effort to have them published. But why? That's the question that haunts me. Off the cuff observations are incredibly well suited to the online format, so I'm leaning toward posting any such essays here or to my freeshell.org website (or both). We'll see; the first step is actually writing something, and given my course load this semester, I'm too busy memorizing Chinese characters and doing logic proofs- not to mention reading a lot of other stuff- to write even a short essay. And writing modern, Western takes on xiaopin isn't even a high priority, compared to other things!
I'm not complaining, mind you. I'm actually pleased that I have so much on my plate, even though most of it will never get eaten, so to speak. There are a lot of things I've got going on that should manifest in one form or another in the near future, which is pretty exciting. It's so fuckin' easy to lose track of possibilities if you're not careful.
Later, folks. Have a good night, and I'll do the same!
Yours,
DAS
