I ...Gwen, you can tell I loved the seduction motif. I remember a Ben Jonson sonnet that makes writing a poem a sexual act, and that taught me something-- come on, the pro-generative act just really does parallel other creative "in-out" actions!<br /><br />Go with it. Let loose. And then revise-- but have fun first!!!!<br />AEdittorrenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14295505709568570553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824896765631412903.post-85342296872876587422009-06-21T00:09:23.486-05:002009-06-21T00:09:23.486-05:00Alicia: Thank you so much for taking a look at thi...Alicia: Thank you so much for taking a look at this for me! I really appreciate your feedback. I'm always torn in a scene like this that's supposed to be kind of fast paced between being quick and dirty (heh) or explaining it all out, but doing it in a way that makes it seem fast. I think you're right--I can go a long way with the seduction motif, and I'm sure I can figure a way to make it seem a bit urgent or fast paced too. I love writing this character, so I will definitely have some fun with it.<br /><br />Leona: Thank you! I'm glad you find it intriguing. Hopefully in a few years it'll be sitting on a shelf at Borders and you can pick it up. :3Gwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09349996606070707002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824896765631412903.post-88720439998846184122009-06-20T22:47:19.098-05:002009-06-20T22:47:19.098-05:00Leona, humor is very seductive.

And personal ads would never call for "a sense of humor". <br /><br />But humor is all about-- hey! this is like sex!-- taking time and paying attention and DWELLING on fun aspects. So comic scenes, even lightly humorous scenes, will take longer to develop, and that's good-- laughter is all about deferring the moment of completion.<br /><br />Hey! It's like sex! <br /><br />Everything is like sex, huh?<br />AEdittorrenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14295505709568570553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6824896765631412903.post-90493760091060771312009-06-20T22:23:01.505-05:002009-06-20T22:23:01.505-05:00oooh, I like this.

I've written sci-fi and I can imagine using something like this for breaking into a ship. <br /><br />Your voice is humorously seductive (is there such a thing?) and I'm wondering about the rest of the story....Leonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11786326364037397675noreply@blogger.com
