im queuing up my haiku journal entries for the past 2 days. but now i have stopped because of some entries i am reluctant to post.  mc posted the other day about the reddit AMA on june first. some fans are preparing by writing about good experiences and so on, i started brain storming in haiku form and...man... it's bad. at least i think it's particularly worse that my usual stuff. i feel embarrassed to post it but at the same time i think it would be good for me if i forced myself to do it anyway. because i always run away. hmmmm....'tis a pickle... a stupid, stupid pickle....

I'm totally paraphrasing, but I'm pretty sure it was Neil Gaiman that said something in his Make Good Art speech about how when you feel like you're walking down the street naked is when you're at the point to show your art, because that's when it's the most true. And to do what only you can do best.
And we are our own worst critics, too. So... personally I say go for it, but obviously it's up to you.

and ya know what i just saw his speech to the university of arts graduating class of '12 the other day. i guess nothing sunk in. i actually made a compromise and posted all of them but 3. thanks for the encouragement, some times i just need some one else to give me nudge.
