Thank you for the insights and critically the simple pleasures of knowing the art of the mind of another via... as you say, cause and effect. The alpha and omega of the world we believe in. The worldview of one's mind in a state of conflict and then, as words hit the page, the wonders of the reader feeling what the mind is up to.

A question; would you have time to read a exposition phase to a novel I am writing. Its about 4 thousand words and is focused on the fiction writing troupe of a mind never at rest sort of wonder when a boy struggles with a man's war ten years subsequent to the event. The setting is in New Orleans. The year 1979.

The boy is at war with himself as the external conflicts continue to create incremental tension with no hope in sight. Until... the least likely of occasions. And the awakening of what becomes of his state when other of the same pedigree converge for what none had ever anticipated.

Thank you.

Eric
