The word and phrase repeats meant going back and reworking each section so that they made sense internally, such as with "papers" to mean gun registration records vs. newspapers vs. surveillance intelligence reports.Tony Nolandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15090583562737225942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7797188666559531190.post-38701032463566430372013-01-28T11:25:51.424-05:002013-01-28T11:25:51.424-05:00Thanks!Thanks!Tony Nolandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15090583562737225942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7797188666559531190.post-42061928308076176862013-01-28T11:25:35.954-05:002013-01-28T11:25:35.954-05:00Thanks Cindy.

Such heinous thoughts and acts do that to some writers - Eudora Welty's "Where Is The Voice Coming From?" comes to mind. Thanks for sharing this.

One of your best. <br /><br />The shifting, repetitive povs and rationals echoed true to the characters, and I like how you took a hot topic and didn't advocate either side... or both, depending on how it's read. <br /><br />Riveting.Cat Russellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14160039271069426174noreply@blogger.com
