1) you make me look up as many words as does P.D.James
2) geoffry of monmouth namedrops > mabinogion IMO
3) the pub scene in 'New Man' is now decidedly bittersweet, emphasis on the bitter

so as a writer, are you after emotional responses? or applause? or both?

Emotional responses. I think they're the whole point of art. The intellectual response is useful, and I'm happy when it's there, but the emotion has to be there first. My goal is to give my readers some kind of experience that moves them somehow. Fights back entropy for a little while.

Really interesting insight into this story! ^_^ Glad you did it. Also, good excuse to re-read the story, as if I needed one, LOL.
