It's so great how you described the shadows- like this sentence, "Moving without moving." Love it! You have a great writing style.<br /><br />I'm a fellow campaigner. I'm not in your groups, but I wanted the fun of getting to know more writers. It's so great to meet you! And boy was it awesome to learn about your extreme craftiness. And your discourse on Significance was so funny and wise!Brenda Sillshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03702163304597782659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7658526372996117205.post-63680672622955886322011-09-08T13:48:52.432-07:002011-09-08T13:48:52.432-07:00Sam: Thanks! :)

I think this one's going to be creepy all the way through.<br /><br />julie: I'm hoping so!<br /><br />Rusty: Yeah, well, actually, I'm not really a fan of flash fiction myself. Outside of the classroom, I sort of think, "What's the point?" However, when I have a larger story in mind, these short pieces can be good just to help set the tone of the work.<br /><br />Cristina: Thanks! yeah, tha man with no eyes creeps me out, too. Wait till you find out why he has no eyes.<br /><br />Kurt: You know, I'm not quite sure what you mean by that, but thanks. I think.<br /><br />Alyssia: It's funny you should say that, because I don't really think of myself as dark writer, but, I guess, maybe I am. The House on the Corner certainly has its share, and this piece about Tiberius is going to be really dark. I guess I'm going to need to balance that with some side work in humor. If I can find the time.<br /><br />I'll have to go listen to that song. They have a few songs I like, but I'm not familiar with that one.<br /><br />Juliana: Hopefully, I'll have the prelude available by the end of the month.
