The problem with writing a story that you think has the potential to be the best short story you've ever written is that it requires a lot of work to fix it. However, the ever-awesome penchaft has provided some excellent critiques, and after I've done my best to fix things tonight in line with her critiques, I shall send the story in for the workshop at Wiscon, where it can be picked to pieces some more in May. And once I've fixed it again, maybe, just maybe, I can sell it to somewhere big and awesome, which I think it has the potential for more than anything else I've written.

Pushing myself is hard. But fun! But hard.
