Newest Deviations

Thank you to everyone who has read, commented and liked my 4th daily deviation, Little Owl. I don't frequent this website very much anymore but it has been a great help to me in the last few years and I can't thank everyone enough.

To people who are curious about me: Yes, I am still writing. Yes, I have books published. No, I am not dead. you can find me at autumnchristian.net .

To those who expressed confusion about the story: That is your right, to critique or express dislike. This story is not for everyone, and is far from perfect. To those who say they "missed the metaphor," this is not surprising, as there was no metaphor. What I write is not a symbol that must be exchanged for another, hidden meaning. It is not your fault to think so, that is how we are taught to read in America. The blood must represent fragility. The ribbon must represent heartbreak. When in reality both are only to be viewed for what they are. To suggest that they MUST represent a higher concept would be to suggest that something can not be appreciated intrinsically. And this would be a mistake.

And conversely, if you want to believe there is a metaphor, that is your right. Sometimes the story takes on a different meaning than the writer intended, and that's okay, because at that point it doesn't belong to the writer anymore. It belongs to you.

I love you all.
