Meme - caving to peer pressure:

Pick a paragraph (or any passage between... let's say 200 and 600 words) from anything I've written, and comment to this post with that selection. I will then give you a DVD commentary on that snippet: what I was thinking when I wrote it, why I wrote it in the first place, what's going on in the character's heads, why I chose certain words, what this moment means in the context of the rest of the fic, lots of awful puns, and anything else that you'd expect to find on a DVD commentary track.

Re: I had a real difficulty picking this particular one out...

Ah! Gotcha. V. tricky, I wouldn't have thought of that (clearly!).. Thank you!

It's funny how words move back and forth... in the SCA, people want to use the word "remove" to indicate a course at dinner, because it feels older, but it turns out that the word "remove" in that context is a Victorian innovation, and when medieval people wanted to indicate the bringing on of a dish during a feast they used the word...

"course." :)

Thanks muchly..
