In thinking about it more, I think I probably didn't adequately define what I like and what I don't like. Because I LIKE discussing the writerly process. What makes this piece tick...
And why this word and not that word. Why did this flow so well and then get hung up on the rocks here. That stuff fascinates me. If that was what your comm was going to address, that would have been totally fantastic and yes, you'd need a dedicated bunch. So please talk about it from time to time, if you would, I'd be interested to see where it leads.
I think with the DVD commentary, it's as you've said. People did some boring stuff with it. I may not have read the right ones. But I am definitely interested in the STORY and not in the AUTHOR. Does that make sense? So it depends on what the DVD is FOR. Is it about the words and the prose and the story or is it self-aggrandizing and Look At Me? I prefer the former.
