There you are [@Rockette]. You ready for this?

Even if there's only one post so far, I know a few things about you to make a some comments here. I think you've reached the zenith of your forum writing—that balance between full-on 18th century and contemporary prose is so sweet that I actually get a taste of vanilla and raspberry in my mouth. I absolutely adore your take on present tense to the point of having to actively resist doing it myself. After all these years, you remain the single best writer I've ever met on the internet. I've tried to imitate you so many times—you won't believe—and every time I've felt guilty and ashamed for trying and thinking that I'd be able to replicate what you do. And then there are your characters—oh boy. They're always so flowery, rich, high concept, and full of depth and meaning. Funny thing, after I saw the image for Scylla, the model you use began to appear on my pinterest—spooky.
