The Turning Fanfic comments

I agree with your first paragraph. The second is unnecessarily self-deprecating.

Maybe I'm not phrasing it well. I'm not saying I can't read books or don't enjoy toying around with writing myself, but I do so very much on an amateur level. I've got no schooling to back up any of what I say, so my point of view is just that, a point of view. Compare to your post on choices in stories, that's something I wasn't aware of at all.

So I think some of the conversations didn't gel to me, and that they may have repeated the same thing and failed to set a tone. But I'm not a literary critic, and I don't know how accurate that is other than as a reflection of my opinion. People often seem to like things I don't after all.

Set this aside, as it'd take years to finish. Or cut it down to size by simplifying away some elements.

Just guessing here, but cutting away decent chunks might remove a lot of kc's motivation for writing it. In this sense maybe it's all or nothing? Hopefully all . . .

The second is unnecessarily self-deprecating.

I've no idea how or in what form, but someday his humility is going to catch up with him. I hope to be there when it happens

You wont, because when the meek inherit the Earth you'll be up in the sky partying with supernovas.

Been awhile, eh?

Wow, yes. I've been creeping forward on Peeru, too...
