What?! You mean to tell me you don't think poor Ms. Richie isn't capable of producing high-quality fiction? Blasphemy!

Did you not read the exert? Only a true master of the language could manage to jump between past, present, and future tense in the first two sentences and then go on to use the indefinite "you" in the third. The rest of us hacks are still tied down by those sophomoric rules of grammar.

Frustrating, isn't it? I won't even start on Christ the Lord. Seriously though, you've got talent. Just keep at it and don't let the stupidity of reality slow you down. *hugs Niamh*
