I'm reworking one of my darkest stories* and having a blast.
It's the toiling and toying inside a new form that's so pleasurable, and the collaborative aspect brings with it a sense of freedom. I can rely on the art to come.
*Yesterday, in reading about Cat Powers--the "queen of sadcore" according to LA Weekly--I found that she often finds her music misunderstood. She says that her songs are "not sad, but triumphant." Isn't making something that works a sort of triumph in itself? I can't stop listening to her song "Wanderer."
