"I'm always desperate for an audience! But I'm also afraid of jinxing things."
I completely empathize! It's such a hard thing to balance, getting the audience vs. putting together a story that's its whole self. The way you're dividing your work (for-publication vs. not-for-publication) is intriguing to me, since these days I hardly think of any of the pieces I'm writing without also thinking what market it belongs in.
I wonder if that means I've become too mercenary... ;)
