thehefnerHey hey! At the persuasion of several friends, colleagues, and well-wishers, I have created a Live Journal account! I still don't know if this is exactly a good idea. Understand, I would LOVE to have somewhere to go to where I can rant and rave and dump out my personal problems and neurosis. I mean, the LAST thing I want to do is be one of those people who whines and whines on and on about their personal problems with absolutely NO intention of doing anything about it. YOU know the kind of person I mean.
But nonetheless I am still a bubbling cauldron of self-doubt, confusion, and fear, and that's where I hope THIS will come in handy. I am a novelist, you understand. Aspiring, I admit. Virginia Woolf once said, "Literature should not be the dumping ground of emotions." Pff, yeah, she's one to talk. But she's right, I shouldn't pour all this wackiness in my head into my novels. And I certainly don't trust psychiatrists... anyone whose every response is, "And how does that make you feel?" and charges a couple hundred per hour doesn't sit too well with me.
So therefore I am willing to give this a try, to see what sadistic people would actually be interested in the outpourings of a neurotic, guiltily hormonal, self-doubting weirdo. Who, in case you haven't heard, likes cats and crying. After a couple of months, we'll see how it goes. And if for nothing else, maybe I can make all y'all feel a little bit better about your own lives.
Toodles,
Me.
