esme

thanks a LOT Esme. I always feel like a bit of a bastard soliciting criticism, but I was dead sure i'd get something valuable out of you, and I wasn't wrong. It's funny that you mention the importance of reading poetry aloud - the other day I was trying to think of one thing I'd tell a reader if I could, and all I could come up with was "read it out loud".
so thanks. I definitely know what you mean about the breaking up of words; it can be fairly gimmicky, and I've been warned off of it before.
I really appreciate your thoughts, Esme.

hey!

i'll check those dates and get back to you.
