Memories
before reading
This one was really long, and I remember stopping in
exhaustion about three-fourths of the way through, then picking it up in the
morning and finishing it off, then going back and adding in even more. I
don’t remember the last bit I wrote, but I know that this one wasn’t written
straight through, it evolved out of scenes, and chained itself together. Oh,
and I also listened to a lot of theremin music, but you knew that.
Review
after reading
It’s very dialogue-heavy, which is fine by me because it’s
such a long work. The talk keeps the story moving. One of my favorite things
about this story is that there is no info-dumping; none. The reader is left to
piece the setting together for herself, while the characters get on with their
lives. Or not. That’s the Science Fantasy Romance ethos, and I think this is
the first story where I actually kept to it. All in all, I’m very satisfied
with this story. Not to mention I love the title.
