The "Look What My Apprentice Did" post has hit two of my LJ groups today.
I went back and read the thing twice and you know what? She never told us her apprentice's name! Why? I mean, really. Why?????
This is yet another of the anarchistic reasons - and I have many - why I have never entered into a formal relationship with an SCA peer.
My work (or current lack thereof) reflects upon ME, thank you very much. I have earned renown of a sort without needing an advocate.
So no one gets to brag about me.
Then again, no one gets to complain to their cronies that I'm not living up to their expectations. Why should I live up to someone else's expectations? Isn't this MY hobby?
Pardon me while I go poke a laurel in the eye with a sharp stick.
