As usual, such an awesome job, Lynn
!
It completely amazes me how you can create
such a feel in your story, so much of a 'personality' of a character we know, really, in so few words.
I've said it multiple times to you, and I'll go ahead and say it again
...I so very much love your way with words. How you are able to listen to a character, and 'find' that character in your stories, by your choices of words, and also by the order of those words that you choose. It's so fun to read what you write--looking for all the touches you create.
Some of my favorites:
Gave me a gift 'n flew right outta sight.
I can
just picture the tone of his voice right here...that whispered wonderment he used in the Pilot.
Loved this--I can totally
hear what this would sound like coming from his mouth.
I ain't been inside a church since I was a little 'un
Percisely the 'little 'un' part...it reminds me of my grandpa, who was an old-time farmer, who so much spoke like this (lovingly in reference to me and my sister). He died--from Alzheimers--almost 10 years ago, but for that brief second while I was reading, you made him very near. Thank you for that
.
Such a great job
!
