accept / embrace

Working still to accept that I won't have a "career" (whatever that looks like these days) as a writer and to fully embrace that I'll forever be underground, a blend of writing, pulps, underground comix, and cassette-trading electronica. Want to be the Jiro-restaurant, the little sushi stand in a subway station that strives only for perfection, knowing full well it can never be attained.

While there are mainstream things I’d like to accomplish – have to believe that I've got a Batman run in me somewhere, if only to satisfy the kid that hungers for it inside – I'm trying to be good with where I am and what I'm doing.
