I think of you

The joy of writing is that, in the end, the world be damned, it is what you say it is. It's far more important, in the end, that you are saying what you want to say, than anyone think you said it the best way particularly if the work in question has an intended audience who appreciates and understands the exact meaning of what your'e saying. Sure, it limits the audience -- but there is nothing wrong with writing to an audience of one. If the work does what it's supposed to do, then regardless of 'poetic merit' -- for which this certainly does not lack by the way -- the first job of any writing is to communicate your message to your intended audience. It appears to have succeeded swimmingly.
