It is natural that they would view any expression of disfavor as mean-spirited and assert their freedom to write whatever, whenever, however. Writers are engaged in a high wire act "constantly risking absurdity" and it seems unfair to deal with hecklers down below. Very valid position.<br /><br />On the other hand, you have people who are not interested in the social scene or making friends, but very interested in the writing. Naturally, they debate, assess and, yes, criticize the writing. Not to discourage anyone from writing or being friends, but because they find debate and criticism enjoyable. Steve said "what we are doing is bigger than and aside from abstract ideas of literary merit," which is true, for people who want to be part of that. But for people who aren't looking to join a new community, abstract ideas of literary merit matter most. Very valid position.<br /><br />Artists have always engaged in inspired craziness, experimentation, etc. while generally giving the finger to critics and the idea of criticism, which is great. Meanwhile, critics have continued analyzing, judging and engaging with the text, which is also great. The two camps are not inherently opposed (in fact, each depends on the other and there is frequent crossover between the two), though I feel sometimes there is confusion about this.Wallace Barkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04128771358355342037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7020210572482038087.post-82559158061359361142012-07-03T13:08:49.448-07:002012-07-03T13:08:49.448-07:00:) Maggie may be the best tweeter around.:) Maggie may be the best tweeter around.willisplummerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14133092052758834290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7020210572482038087.post-62274575925974644992012-07-03T11:44:15.050-07:002012-07-03T11:44:15.050-07:00:] killin it:] killin itMichaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13664192006225744812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7020210572482038087.post-57340085637113333302012-07-03T11:42:19.564-07:002012-07-03T11:42:19.564-07:00thank u for brightening my day
