Great commentary!

(the moment in "Twilight" where he demands Tony eat the Chinese food comes to mind.) I love that bit in Twilight! And you're so right.

I love the way you explained here why you did some things, because I know they worked when I read it the first time.

I'm glad they worked! I had such a picture of this Tony in my mind I really wanted to make sure it made its way onto paper (well, LJ anyway) for others to see.

I think it was a good decision not to specify how Tony was injured. It doesn't matter for the story, and I think it might pull the focus away from the present.

This is great. I loved this story, and your commentary here is very revealing about your writing process and the techniques you use deliberately. Very impressive!

:) I'm glad it worked, this was one of my few stories where I took off and wrote something fairly unusual for me.
