Yep, I see his points, but I don't see that a story along those points is better than one that isn't. Or, I don't see why SFF in general, nor this story in particular, should be written closer to those points. Conversation would be much more rational than dancing, as Caroline told Mr. Darley. He agreed, but added that it would be much less like a ball.

Very interesting! After reading the post’s title I thought it was a bad review, and I would not say it actually is. Also who puts that kind of effort into a book review?! An intensive review. Just a random reader?? Fascinating!

I solicited this one, but was surprised at the tone. But, made me think about my writing a bit, so good in the end
