Do as I say, not as I do

pjthompsonI found myself writing a review this week in which I criticized an author for sending his MC on a journey to a far off land for no more apparent reason than to show off more of his cool worldbuilding.
I just realized as I rewrote today that I could be accused of the same thing in Angels.
But, but, but my characters learned important information there! They were made to confront parts of themselves they lost! They hooked up with folks who will be important in the sequels!

I hate when I read something that makes me think "OOPS" about my own work, though. Man, that's rough.
