Fic appreciation: beautiful sentences

[crowroad3]

Borrowing and expanding # 9, memorable lines, from frozen_delight's fic appreciation meme <3-- because I love (love!)
well-crafted sentences. And how they speak to one another, make the whole.

Thank you for this inventory of beautiful writing. It's like a reference work of all the people I should be reading - if I'm not already.

I'd love to do inventory like this more often--so many sentences to appreciate. Need to catch up on your work as well!!

I could have kept reading forever and ever. You do such a wonderful job at describing what stands out to you about a quote.

Also, thank you very much for including "Sand Between Our Toes". ♥

*hugs* So many sentences to appreciate! I think I'd like to do this more often. Thank you for the meme, for your words, for always being so thoughtful and excellent. <3

So many sentences to appreciate! Here's one of yours I love:

"Dean's not sure he can do this now, bring up the pills and Billie; not with Sam still recovering in hospital, not when he still has his brother's blood under his fingernails, and a bullet stained with tacky blood in his pocket."

The way you choose to go exterior rather than interior, give us the blood under Dean's nails and the bullet, rather than naming feelings. The "not with" and the "not when", the way you give us "this", then tell us it stands for the pills and Billie, rather than the other way around, the way you break up the phrases.

Yep:<3

Thank you!!!! And your work is always so standout; the flow of the words you choose, and the feelings and emotions they evoke. I'm so happy to have you in this fandom ♥

Can't promise sentences as fresh and original as these, but I can tell a story. And I have my moments :) I love your work, the poetry of it.
