You have no IDEA how worried I was to write some Kentucky-like headspace. And just. Taking a first try at ANYTHING is always tough, but because this was for YOU and I respect YOUR writing and ease with language so much, it was extra-specially nerve-rumbling to sit down and try to go to Harlan county in my head. So it brings me SUCH joy that this made you all smiley.
Thank you so much for the specific commentary. And John Prine! I don't often find myself liking anything I write, but when I heard Angel From Montgomery the other day, I thought, goddamn, those words are perfect for Winona's feelings towards Raylan's aloof impenetrability. But then, from Raylan's perspective, it's like... he is just all broken-homed and clueless and reluctant to believe anyone would care enough about his feelins to expose themselves to that...darkness, or something! I don't know! Perhaps I'm misreading the undertones.
In any case, your lovely comment has me grinning ear to ear like a giant dork.
One last thing? I would die of teleportation-to-heaven gratitude if someone ever surprised me with that cheesecake. You MUST discuss what it's like to put that in your mouth.
