And I need to keep on writing them, without long breaks. Because I've discovered something about myself: As my fiction ages, I like it better--I fail to see the flaws that were so obvious when I first wrote the piece. This means that nothing that I write today will equal, in my mind, anything that I wrote six weeks ago, or even six days ago. I need the blog to have something that I wrote this week, so that I can tell myself, I posted that piece of junk, I can post this one, too!
It's not a sunny philosophy, but it works.
