In fairness, much of the time I spend at work is essentially wasted, since there's very little to do besides look pretty. Luckily I was able to fit these into work hours, or definitely wouldn't have stuck it out for so long. At this point, it's more the principle than anything.

The other frustrating thing is that I get this irrational urge to sit and rewrite them, the way I would have done it. Maybe I have a long and fruitful fanfiction career ahead of me - a horrifying prospect........

And although Desp did acknowledge numerous shortcomings, he also compared it to the work of Neil Gaiman, who I've never read but have heard is pretty damn good. That's false advertising in my book. Motherfucker owes me a dime.
