So hopefully this question isn't too personal for your tastes - and if it is, I hope you choose to answer it by means other than this page - because honestly, I am baffled by you. You often mention feelings of loneliness, and I wonder if this is actually how you feel, or if it's part of the self-deprecating humour routine. It boggles me, because you seem absolutely content with being alone, and I know that personally, if I had the chance to meet you or even write together, I would grab it immediately. As a girl freshly graduated from college and trying to figure out the path of sharing my ideas with the world, watching what you do is inspiring to me. So thank you for doing what you love, and thank you for giving it out for others to see. :)
i have mentioned this before, but it was reluctantly that i decided to really start working alone. but ever since i did, it has worked very well and the loneliness is much more tolerable and organized. it doesn't feel 'wrong' like it did before, but it is still there. it is especially strong when i feel up against the wall about lengths of projects -- i want to do longer projects and i think most people want me to, but they take so long that it means nothing gets posted in the mean time. that's kind of when i feel the most lonely-- there's no one that really is with me during that struggle.
