Since my girlfriend did...

... a 14-worder. I actually wrote this one over a year ago, and it had just never occurred to me that if I put it on my LJ, people would actually see it and it would have more life than just sitting in the notebook I wrote it in forever. Thanks, Ruth! I promise not to do this too frequently, though. I don't want my fanfic available for people to see, because, if they see it, no matter what they say about it, I'll write more of it just so I can get feedback, and it will take time away from working on the stuff I intend to sell. However, 14-worders are fair game, because they take what, five minutes? I wonder, does anybody write fanfic haiku, or is that just Too Wrong? Once I see more Hikaru no Go I could write a Sai haiku...

Anyway. Fic.

Is good to have this thing up on the net, because whenever I read it to anyone in person, there's a word in there in which I keep stumbling and substituting an 's' for a 'k'. Maker. The word is maker. I promise. It's just I've never been able to read it aloud without stuttering.

I have to go do a very great deal of Greek prose composition.

Angst-O-Meter: Mega biblion, mega kakon. The larger the book, the greater the evil. Some Alexandrian poet or other, talking about my Greek textbook with a remarkable degree of artistic prescience
