The "rough" writing has a charm to it. The portrait of Ruth was vivid and striking and sexy and captured the essence of that town in a powerful way. You'd have a future in writing horror should you want. Once again you say you don't understand men, and Kayley says it too, which is a curious blind spot in a writer so adept at finding the telling detail. Thumb up!

2025-12-20 19:08:42 +0000 UTCI think you and Ruth wanted to be together, but didn't know how to make it happen. She seen you as a 'free bird' and didn't want to cage you perhaps, and you couldn't pull her from her cage without breaking her wings. The mystical phoenix bird has several variations on how it burns itself up and regenerates....but, I like your version too. It still reminds me of you. I've heard of the mythical jackalope with horns - it's kind of like the Phoenix and the Unicorn...would be nice if they existed. And then this - I was 'Eevee' or if I really insisted, 'Eev-el' like I was Superman's transvestite cousin. That still has me laughing!
