That’s interesting E. I like the effect you achieve with it. As if you pressed the world between panes of glass.

I let go too much, cut back in the second draft. Though still probably let go too much.

Thanks all.

You know, my professors would call that one of my problems, Clownfish. I’m told I need to let go more.

Finally got around to reading it today (a long week…). Very nice. A real stillness to the narrative voice, if that makes sense. As if you are looking at events through a lens, from a distance.

Awesome! I can’t wait until it’s finished! I dunno if this makes any sense but the voice is “slicker” than that of Long Way Home excerpt I read from Amazon. Distinct style, for sure, but refined much more differently it seems.
