I can tell the stories. I should tell the stories. I know what they are.
I hope I'm not like Bilbo, spread thin. So many people that read this and I have to spread to show them all things. But then I'm not under the power of an evil ring and I don't have a nephew to go toss my hypothetical ring in Mount Doom for me anyways.

I've noticed that in LARP my character couldn't really connect with people. She didn't really get together with them and make deals and plans that benefited both parties. I think that happens to me too. I have troubles making plans with people, making things that I'd like to happen happen. Oh, sometimes I can plan big events but it is the little things I'm talking about. Borrowing people's skills to make something that they'd appreciate too. I suppose I do it more than I think. I suppose all of my fears are unfounded.

That is part of it. As for maturity, I read the LJs of many authors and other people who have been in the Wiscon type of SF community for years and years. As they've been around for more years than me, they've had time to connect with people in different ways than I have; to have feelings that I've never had; to create things I haven't yet created. They have a different perspective, a different vista from which they look at life. You have a different vista, too. You and Zee and Cabell all do. It isn't a bad thing, just a different thing. The future and the past all sort of swirled up in my head today.
