About ten years ago, you left a comment on a story of mine that I can still recite word for word to this day: You're descriptive without being superfluous, and that's just about the neatest thing ever. I don't like lengthy descriptions, neither to write them nor read them, and all these years that single line from you gave me confidence that I can make a story work, and orient my readers, without them.
I spent several years not posting or reading anything (still writing, though), but recently I've found myself having the focus again, and what do you know, reviewers' names are clickable now? Has that always been the case or is this a new feature? Anyway here I am. And I read Simon Says, and I enjoyed it; the needlessly insulting banter between teenagers: spot on, the record-scratch-moment that, in hindsight, has a very different dynamic than it seems to from Jett's perspective. The twist, or at least whole lot of extra insight, on the very last word. I'm also amused by the fact that they are now alone in someone else's house.
Thank you for sharing this story. Also thank you for reading and reviewing mine when I was pretty new to writing, and contributing to the intensely positive experience I had with it.
Oh look, I already reviewed this back in the day X)
