Thanks, Perdita

You took exception to certain turns of phrase in my first story; I think I replied (rather haughtily), that the terms were necessary for historical accuracy and, well, ambience.

The soundness of your advice must have penetrated at some level, however. Without any conscious intent to do so, I found that I was writing the conclusion without recourse to those phrases, and with a shift in emphasis in how I approached the relationships between characters.

I believe this helped make the conclusion a better story, and taught me something valuable.

Thank you.

Wow, you could have just sent a PM. (This is a bit embarrassing, I get freaked whenever there's a thread with my name in it.) I don't recall any haughtiness though .

best, Perdita

Heh heh...

I thought my previous response was defensive and dismissive.

Since that post was public, and I was wrong, I thought my acknowledgement should be equally public.

I realized how it might be perceived, but I thought it was the right thing to do, anyway.

LOL,

You must be a singer from California, you are taking this whole internet stuff way too serious.

Welcome to the Land of make believe!

Phildo,

It takes a big person to admit they were wrong!

Yeah especially standing so close to the peanut gallery, when you do it.

Smutpen is alright in my book, considering I don't have a book just a collection of worthless perverted stories. Smut can have the first page.

Despite hating to bump this thread I am compelled to say that puts a big grin on my blushing face.

Only for you, Gauchecritic

You are too modest, Venetian Lady.

You are an inspiration to many of us. Your love of Shakespeare and Grand Opera makes us aware of the mountains we are trying to climb. We can see the summits, because you remind us they are there, and we will keep trying. A few of us might get some way beyond the foothills.

This place is an inspiration for people wanting to write. It may be an erotica site but it is more helpful than many mainstream writing sites and you are one of the helpers.

Thank you.

Hear, hear.

I'm not sure about anyone else, Og, but I include you in those that inspire me.

for you and Perdita both.
