    Persy, your voice! :) It's been a while since I've reviewed anything, so pardon my dull insights. I'd like to get out of the way my one criticism. Why must ...

    Nice to see some poetry from you! What you've written is a tender and engaging vignette. I enjoyed it very much. It had its moments where you seemed to lose ...

  • Short Story » General, General Re: My Son is Gay

    It's not perfect but I liked the way I could imagine everything happening from the dialogue alone. Mark of a good script. “Life. Um… I—I don’t really know what to ...

    Hello, Kamas! I checked out your poem when you first posted it but wasn't sure I had much to say. Something told me I should swing by again. :) I ...
