It's great to see your smiling icon.<BR/><BR/>Since my writing often degenerates into attempts at goofy humor, I think my reaction to it is very susceptible to my mood. Humor is tricky that way. If I write something on day one, I'll think it is hilarious. Day two it will be embarrassingly sophomoric. Day three it will show some promise, even though I haven't changed a word in it.<BR/><BR/>And no, I don't hate everything I write. Last week I was going back through blog entries to find some references for a submission I'm doing, and found that, despite some grammer and prose hiccups, I was actually quite proud of much of it. But don't tell anyone. That will undermine my whole shtick.Dan Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08387429717617727003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22267600.post-68645218461646280622008-01-23T03:31:00.000-06:002008-01-23T03:31:00.000-06:00you don't ever come back to an older piece and say...you don't ever come back to an older piece and say hey, that's pretty good? I can write after all. Maybe setting them aside for even longer, like a few weeks instead of days. I'm trying to come up with some humerous way of saying it, try to write this with your voice instead of my own, but can't do it. so a boring comment that I will submit, rather than attempting to rewrite and rewrite and rewrite.Tonya Ricuccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10778059489713831067noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22267600.post-90696537694288013612008-01-16T11:47:00.000-06:002008-01-16T11:47:00.000-06:00I wondered what else NIN might stand for.Um, but n...I wondered what else NIN might stand for.<BR/><BR/>Um, but no, I'm not a big Nine Inch Nails fan.Dan Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08387429717617727003noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22267600.post-23177099277817059302008-01-16T08:38:00.000-06:002008-01-16T08:38:00.000-06:00As I saw this in my blogfeed, I thought "Dan's a N...As I saw this in my blogfeed, I thought "Dan's a Nine Inch Nails fan?
