So I read it again. There's just so much in there. Literally and metaphorically. Fascinating piece Zivah!

Wow. I just read it through. Let it take me on a ride. Quite wild! I need to read it again though to catch the nuances and deeper meaning. Love the imagination!

The writing was super cool. I loved Kathy Bates in Misery but I didn't actually find this to be dark like that. More emotional. Knowing you as much as I do I could feel you through it and some of your experiences. And then it just has that magical touch of creativity and awesome imagination that comes out of you!

“half the fun lies in the imagining”

Yes, and in this case, I’m imagining the possibilities of the fishermen taking a trip to Mama French’s place. All the sailor talk and cunny talk would be delicious!

I get it. I kind of heard this story instead of reading it...if that makes sense.

What I mean is it felt like a deep conversation.

Deeper than the deep blue sea. It was certainly a conversation in my head! Thank you 😊

Fuck! damn shit, hell! This is lovely, I feel like I'm in a sailor bar, the kind where the bar top could give you splinters if you rested your hand on it. Loved every moment!

I love it when you swear at me. It means I’ve done a decent job 🤣

I’m glad you enjoyed it! I’ll send you some tweezers to pick out the splinters.

One of these days, someone is gonna read me cursing at your prose/poetry without context and think I'm being an asshole ;P

I really did, this was wonderful!
