Matthew, I'm certain that a number of members would find this matter of "seeing a project through" very thought-provoking and would be eager to comment -- but that's all going to get lost in this thread, which ought anyway to be focused on Patty's critique.

I'd very much encourage you to begin a new topic in the Cafe to get this discussion rolling. (If you'd like some assistance doing this, let me know.) We are even now looking into adjusting the Cafe a little to make it easier to find and participate in discussions of "artist's life" matters just like this. Just part of our Famous Ongoing Service.
