RE: Friends forever?
Thank you! I enjoy reading your stories and not only for its plotline but also because of richness and fluency of your phrase construction, and I am trying to absorb English semantic pattern that is so characteristic of your writing.
When I write a story it is usually 95% imagined as I didn't have so much experience communicating with people. Consequently, my stories are not retrospective, process-oriented and generously sprinkled with so many lively details. I use only as many details as necessary to understand what's going on in the story and to propel it forward it to its final point.
All that is to say that I will try (as time permits) to read everything that you write and learn.
Cheers!
I've only just found this gem of a reply! Sorry I have been tardy in replying.
I have read your work and now that I understand the way you think and write, a little better, I 'get' where you're coming from. You have a completely different way of expressing your ideas from mine and that is brilliant.
I have to dig deep to follow your thought processes.....mine are so light and superficial by comparison.
BUT
just as sunshine sparkles on the surface of the sea, so there are hidden depths in which leviathons swim.........
Yin and Yang ......I'm so glad that we are all so different and yet can connect through words. Amazing to me.
Thank you! I don't find your writing superficial. Your comparison is exactly right. Although the subject is usually light, a reader feels like s/he is looking through the deep clear water. That depth emerges through an abundance of lively details and the wide lens narrative allowing a reader to make their own conclusions about what's going on. In my writing, I am sort of leading a reader by hand like a blindfolded person. )))
