yah right.

i did, once, -whadda fool- try. got rejected too, rather
spectacularly. the guy, having sat on it for a whole year, finally
deigned it "too emotionally distanced from the material". oke, so
even tho i knew that to be idiotic... hell, i work very hard at, i
dunno, leaving... air... in the stuff, paring back melodramatic
superfluities... i *still* got fucked up by it all, you know, the
rejection. i take rather badly to rejection, very badly, in fact. the
ah, effluvia of my rather interesting childhood, that is. i know it
but i cannot control it. so i never tried again. that's what i do, i
get rejected once and i never try again.

it is true that i only know myself. but then again, i may also know
others by that very fact, maybe, i mean, if i am to be truthful. or i
can pretend to know, even believe to know... but hell, fuckit, we all
know that. or not. wheeee!
