My Google Scholar profile gives you more information on my publications, including citations.

I used to have strong opinions about some of my papers, now I agree with Van der Graaf Generator “No-one can ever know what of their own’s their very best” (in Bunsho).

What I thought was perfect,
what I thought was polished,
no-one thought it worth much
and they made that clear.
What I thought was worthless,
merely repetition
somehow tugged the heartstrings,
brought them all to tears.

No-one can ever know
what of their own’s their very best.
