Farewell!

My guestblogging experience here has been wonderful, thank you all! I've learned a lot, made some neat connections, and gotten many pointers for learning more and doing more about things I'm interested in. This pleases me greatly.

I tried to pursue what Cory has called "That feeling of trepidation, of being slightly out of control, of taking a risk, of not knowing whether you are going to crash and burn." I hope that this showed, and that the results were enjoyable to you. I think that if you're not continuously checking your sanity, testing if you're correct or deluded about how your efforts might bounce off of the real world, then you're limiting yourself.

Here it goes, one last post into the ether-- watch it bounce: boing, boing, boing, boing, boing...

Fondly,
Paul

  ” “That feeling of trepidation, of being slightly out of control, of taking a risk, of not knowing whether you are going to crash and burn.”

  I feel this way all the time. Hasn’t gotten me anything but anxiety. ”

  …..aaand that’s why worrywarts never get invited to adventures.

  Probably too late for this since Paul’s gone, but his guestwriter intro blurb is miswritten as “Paul Spinrad is a freelance writer/editor with Catholic interests”. He has catholic interests from my glance at his varied output. Were he to have Catholic interests, I doubt the scatological genre would be as well-represented as it is.

  Or driving yourself (myself) crazy.

  Anyway, best wishes and thanks for blogging on BB.
