glass_icarus | original writing (Reply)

eglantiere asked me about my original writing! The short answer* is, I haven't pursued original writing in years and have never been very serious about it. Mostly it's been limited to poetry (based on rl inspiration) and fail-provoked personal essay-type posts. Nothing gets me ranting faster than immigration/race stuff, I'm just saying. :P My one (long-ago) attempt at original fiction I abandoned very quickly because it required more research, time, and energy than I could afford at the time.

Now, 100% of my writing efforts are academic. I'm sure somewhere, some PhD students exist who retain their capacity for original non-academic writing during their degree, but I am not one of them. Speaking of which, it's back to work for me!

*The long answer is more theoretical than real, since I'm not really sure what to expand on, so I guess if you have further questions just ask? xD Also, feel free to drop me a prompt if there's something else you'd like me to talk about!
