BTS List - That's why he goes bad, you know -- all the good people hit him on the head or try to shoot him and constantly mistrust him, while there's this vast cohort of minions saying, We wouldn't hurt you, Lex, and we'll give you power and greatness and oh so much sex...

-- Teague, reviewing "Star Wars: Attack of the Clones"

From:I am in school, but I'm in art school (mid-life crisis, maybe :) ...and I am dreading the dreaded "artist's statement"--which is ridiculous, but they're going to make me write one at some point. And I really, really want to turn in my Professor!Ray series instead. I only have to take studio courses for my BFA, so I'm studying art history on my own and reacting in fanfic and fanart. Because that is apparently the way my brain works. (Dammit, Jim) I'm an artist, not an academic, and I don't want to have to write out this left-brain stuff to make a point. I want to make art and let people absorb the point(points--multiple and shifting and possibly contradictory)....
I have a BA in English and French lit from many years ago, and I'm not convinced my brain can even go there again, back to that mindset (which I wasn't particularly good at even then, but I wrote well enough to flim-flam the profs!) When I figure out how Professor!RayK flim-flammed some university into giving him an Art History PhD, I'll put it into one of the stories, because he's in the same boat. He's really a sculptor, and the academics don't get him, but people who love sculpture do.
See, I can't even talk about meta anymore, and I don't know why. I admire the shiny brains of the people who do it well; I even sometimes put my two cents in, but I just can't write the stuff in any coherent way. It hurts too much. I do have ideas, but I just want to explore them in fic and art only.
Anyway, I'm delighted to see that you have yet more Due South on tap for us. A year isn't long. Last May I finished a Due South novel that took me three years, and it's far from the only 3-year project that I've done. And there are more in the offing... Writing fic takes time! I think meta is all well and good, but if you can write fic?? Then you should do that! Not only is it more fun for you...it's more fun for us, too! :) (Speaking only for myself, of course, but I know a lot of people would agree with that statement.)
