I think this is why it's more important at our level to try many different projects rather than get hung about one not working out so well.
When you say slow projects mean something more to us... I'm reminded of long projects. Like my world of
Westcity
I've been working on for years. Or at least in the world for years, even though I might not write for it for months at a time.
but I wouldn't call that a slow project... more of a long proejct.
right as i wrote this i just realized... it is slow. Just not slow in the way the slow projects I was imagining in my previous comments were.
Macro Slow vs micro slow.
I love writing for
Westcity
... I love that you called it westtown that's hilarious. and no that's not just
Lansing
or
East Lansing
... it's kinda more Lansing +
Grand Rapids
+ something else more imaginary.
but because I love writing for it and it's the world I've been forming for so many years, I feel like it's sacred and I shy away from writing for it.
I think actually the next step is to not treat it as sacred and go all in on it in terms of execution. Wht do I have to lose? what do i fear i will lose?
I'll tell you. I fear that I will lose my profound love for that world.
BTW think it's hilarious you called Gabriel Gabe. Think that's the first time anyone's called him that here.
