Pick a paragraph (or any passage less than 500 words) from any story I've written, and comment to this post with that selection.

Man, I'd love to hear you talk about remixing, so here, from The Anatomy of Sound:

“Yes.” Wilson’s range of cadences for the simplest answers never failed to astound House when he was in a mood to be astounded, but now it was just annoying when he just wanted to get this conversation over with right now. The intensity of the sound was the disruptive part to it right now; it busted up the waveform flow of the previously soothing monologue about Lalor’s troubles. Go ahead, blame the different pace and setting of her new job for the difficulties adjusting because, even though she was enjoying herself outside of work, things were bleeding over and making her sloppy. And of course trust Wilson to first step in and do what he could to make her more comfortable with everything from coffee to dinner and a show, and then to try to defend himself to House about it. On one level, he could appreciate the effort Wilson took to conducting everything and ensuring everyone in his department was in harmony with itself and the rest of the hospital. But right now, a minute into a new monologue about dialogue, it was getting on House’s nerves.

Wilson’s pitch shifted; House started to pay attention to the words. Good golly, Miss Molly, he was actually apologizing for his behavior.

You sparked off a bit of a monster; commentary for the whole story is up at my journal now.
