WG. Oh. I just got it.

wildernessguru has taken some really nasty swipes at my writing lately. He loved Primer to the Dark Arts and A Moment of Sin. But the other day he shredded my SG-1 fic -- one he hadn't even read. A day or so later he called my HP slash fics, "slash about children."

Yeah. Mean.

Just now, I suddenly got it.

He's jealous.

Not just about the writing, but about my school, writing, career, everything. His job's in the shitter right now, and he said yesterday that he feels like he's accomplished nothing over the last eight years. He doesn't know where to turn. And he's also mentioned feeling jealous about The Puppy's success.

So seeing me do well... yes, he's proud of me. But it hurts, too.

Oh.


ETA: wildernessguru says nope, he's not jealous. He was just irritated with me at the time.
