I conflated I

greygirlbeastAddendum: Just a reminder, which I meant to include in my post this morning, that the Species of One LJ Community is up and running, under the Ever Watchful Eye of Spooky. I think a discussion of The Five of Cups is just getting started. You are all invited to join in.
Oh, and I would hope that the self-mockery inherent in my use of the Kerouac quote back on Friday was obvious. It's that thing called irony. Surely, there are few authors out there who've spent more time putting themselves on display than have I. If there's any longer a distinction between "the art and the artist," in my particular case, then I'll be damned if I can find it. I've become two or three of my most interesting characters. But, still, it was nice thought, what Jack said.

But Spooky's always happy to flog...

At this rate, I'm going to end up with carpal tunnel, or something... Tennis elbow? Or it that switching elbow?
anyway...

Date: 2004-04-27 03:46 am (UTC)I dunno. For some reason, it didn't feel to me like you go against the spirit of the Kerouac quote. Maybe I feel you put yourself "on display" more for the sake of your art than for the sake of yourself. I'm not sure if that means anything, though . . .
