[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't mean to be the over-earnest cringey character here - but can I just say how much I appreciate the conversation we've managed to have here about this?

It's been intense and deep but not mean or attacky. This feels like DCUM at its best.

I hope I didn't ruin it by saying that. [/quote]

This whole thread has actually inspired me to start writing fiction again. I loved to write creatively in another life and I feel like sharpening some pencils again. Dawn is kind of cringey but I totally identify with her and being on the short end of the mean girl dynamic.[/quote]

+1. I took a few creative classes at a local MFA program 15 years ago and managed to publish a handful of short stories in literary magazines before drifting away from it. But this conversation is actually making me think about writing again. I've realized, also, that I'm not interested in chasing literary stardom in the way I once was, and that's OK. I'm happy with my current job and have zero interest in becoming a writer who tweets or a writer who teaches or lectures.

Also, I appreciate the thoughtfulness of the posts here. I'm not on twitter, so I appreciate y'all digging up the salient stuff for me to look out (without making me do it myself.) [/quote]
