On occasion, I'll entertain delusions of being published, but more than anything, this is a hobby for me. Just a way to unwind when I've wrapped my mind just a bit too tightly. My ambitions in life lie elsewhere.
Periodically, I'll grow psychotically fond of a piece or/and decide that I want to try to do something with the things I've submitted and remove it/them, because most places would consider this 'online publishing'. If something you happen to have enjoyed has been removed, that's why. Bear with me. Intellectually, I realize that I'm not that good and that nothing will come of it. Emotionally, my mind is screaming"TRY IT! TRY IT! TRY IT!" and I won't get any rest until they are at least removed.
