  1. Thanks for pointing me to your novel, Lethe. I love your narrative style, it’s the same as mine (when it comes to the slash, the saga is a tad too over-analytical in places, dialogue heavy and long for the average fan, ha, yeah). It’s very poetic and ornate, and as you put it, expressive. Many don’t like this much more pleasant style and prefer the boring, uninspiring and mechanical wording, which I detest no matter the genre, and that’s why I love yours. Your story is a very intriguing journey through a literal chapter of your life, mixing true events with your vivid imagination.

  2. Thank you . . . as writers we learn a lot from each other; and those who appreciate our work seem to find it.
