  3. Yes. There is that point in a story where you get ‘caught’. I’m reading along thinking get on with it, come on. I used to be a symphony kind of reader - content to let the story build, full of patience. Not any more.

    So I’m reading along, do-de-do, come on, come on, GET ON WITH IT MAN, when eep, I am not just caught but crushed in a vise, my eyes glued to the screen, twitching.

    On another point of curiousity - are you in fact a solipsist?

  4. oh, sassy … ~ soft chuckle ~ in some ways, yes. i’m not sure how far back you’ve read into my archives. This goes back to my relationship with G. i don’t know how to put links in a comment, so i’ll do it as a post.

    i love your questions.

  8. Ah, I love Zander’s writing, though this isn’t my favorite.

    By the way, elise, to file under random: fully 90% of the time, when I am poised to comment on your blog, I get interrupted by some small, or not so small, person. I find that peculiar.

  9. Luscious story…and one that caught me twice. The first instance was that the voyeuristic narrator’s voice in the first half of the story sounded female. Imagine my surprise.

  10. I was tricked by that too!! In fact I was sure the first cock was a typo.

    If the not so small interruptions are welcome, then please feel free to poise yourself in a post with the cursor blinking in a comment window. i don’t mind being used. ~wink~

    Kaz and sassy ~

    That’s what i found the most beautiful about this story. POV is something with which most writers struggle, i think. In this case, Zander transcended POV. i remain awed. i’m so glad you both enjoyed it.

  12. Elise - I’m definitely going to spend more time with Zander’s blog - and thank you for the introduction to that spark of extraordinary creativity.

    Sassy - you really made me laugh! To tell a few tales out of school, I’ve met far too many cocks that would have been better as typos!

    So very welcome. Zander is truly a diamond in the e-rough. Enjoy!
