I feel like I get across everything I'm really trying to--mood, theme, emotion, atmosphere--like I tell a complete story.
G. Share a snippet from one of your favorite pieces of prose you’ve written and explain why you’re proud of it.
From "Boundless Love" (http://brightly-lit.livejournal.com/21947.html):
"Dean hadn’t meant for all his barbs to go so deep into Sam, so deep they nicked his heart and bled away his will to live. He hadn’t meant to destroy his will to live! He’d only meant to destroy his will to leave. Turned out they were the same."
I love when I find a way to express a complex concept in as few words as possible, when it just kind of comes right out, and I also love prose that has a poetic rhythm and beauty. Add that to deep emotion, and I'm a happy camper. :-)
And I answered O for septembers_coda, above. :-) Thanks for asking all these fun ones.
