Is it possible to nominate an introduction to one of these, because if so, I nominate Chris' intro here. What a piece of writing! Thanks for a chance to be with this story again. It's very special.

"I also picked this passage because it demonstrates the essential power of timing - rhythm? cadence? meter? - something like that - in all great writing." -- totally on point here. Beautiful and flowing writing, Eleanor.
