when Mandy shouted
I am getting sick of As Large As Alone! (Edited to add: Also I am pretty sure it needs a different title.) I think this means that when I have resolved all my current issues with it, I should send it out to some people to see if in fact I have mucked it up beyond all repair.
Unfortunately, as soon as I resolve one problem, I realize something else that is wrong in it. Another sentence, another phrase, some other wrong note or chord. And then I glance through it and think that in fact the entire thing is flimsy, unsupported, and has no resonance to it at all.
I suspect this is what they mean when they say that works of art are never completed, only abandoned.
(Hey. I am making a work of art. That's pretty sweet.)
