That's okay, I knew exactly what you meant :-) (When my Downeast-ness really shows, my 'R's disappear at the ends of words, sounding more like 'ah's instead. That's something that happens whenever I get wound up, good or bad, lol

So in fiction, or should I say in the terms of style such liberties are okay. Is that what you think? That was the same conclusion I'd come to, but it's cool to have another opinion such as yours.
I don't have "Ursus Triad, Later" but then I'm slowly compiling her short-form work. I've got Extremities which is a body of her solo short work, (it's soooo good Gray, really, you've got to get it) and one collaboration of hers and Malzberg's in the Redshift anthology called "What I Did Last Summer". But I ordered a used copy of Tales of Alien Sex since you recommended it so highly; so that's on the way. I have every single novel she's written though. She's my main influence in my work. My vignettes have always had that stream of conscious flow like her work, from my teens even, and I screamed out loud the first time I read her work. It was like validation, you know? Like seeing myself reflected back

This will be brief since I have to go back outside and pick up more blown garbage from the storm last night. Bear with me please.
The comments on writings were very interesting and I will print them out later. The way you work seems quite logical and precise. I wish you the best. I have a manuscript squalling for me to work on it. There is never any true peace when writing, but it's fun. Thank you for sharing the way you work. Lots of folks will probably benefit from your words.
