Maria, you're doing what I do. I've taken all ''my'' accomplishments down. I have little interest in ''ever'' going to FAC again, and I've basically wiped my page many times. The thing is, I like to write, this is a hobby I enjoy, and somehow I have to try to find a balance here. You know as well as I, having my page on your watch, it's been damn hard in the last year. But please don't get too discouraged. You do good work; I often use your pages as templates for short stories. I look at your sources when I need information because I know you're a good researcher. Please, chin up. This is supposed to be some kind of a pep-talk. [[User:Truthkeeper88|Truthkeeper]] ([[User talk:Truthkeeper88|talk]]) 00:52, 19 September 2012 (UTC) |

:Aw, I won't do anything drastic, so no worries. This is the second time in a week I've been told I have ownership issues, and when it's said so ''ardently'' it makes me doubt myself, my motives, my laurels. Then I think -- how nuts is this place? How nuts am I to have stayed here, holy crap, six years? Why do I have to keep explaining myself over and over? How can it take five years to build an article, but one person can come in and make a drastic visual change with little more than their own opinion and the majority "vote"? And perhaps most importantly, why stick around when others -- better editors! -- gave up long ago? Writing ''is'' fun, and I'm a big enough nerd that I enjoy research quite a bit. But, yeah, balance. We'll figure it out. If not, it's not the end of the world. BTW, I was in Key West last month and not only did visit Hemingway's house, meet his cats, and visit his favorite bar, but I also drank far too many margaritas.

Maria, you're doing what I do. I've taken all my accomplishments down. I have little interest in ever going to FAC again, and I've basically wiped my page many times. The thing is, I like to write, this is a hobby I enjoy, and somehow I have to try to find a balance here. You know as well as I, having my page on your watch, it's been damn hard in the last year. But please don't get too discouraged. You do good work; I often use your pages as templates for short stories. I look at your sources when I need information because I know you're a good researcher. Please, chin up. This is supposed to be some kind of a pep-talk. Truthkeeper (talk) 00:52, 19 September 2012 (UTC)
