With any piece of writing, you're hoping that it will change something, and it seldom does.
The only joy I had was writing what was. That book was. It no longer amuses me to be all the things I was when I wrote that. But it is my story as I was then.
Well, language seems to be something that obsesses me. I'm always writing about it.
To plead for the Oppress'd and to defend the Weak seem'd to me a generous undertaking; for tho' it may be secure, 'tis not always Honourable to run over to the strongest party.

Accepting that part of the process of writing is deleting a lot of what you write is soothing, at least to me.
Waiting in line for something mundane is very boring. Waiting for my doctor to see me and waiting for my dentist to see me, yes, that is boring.
