    This cryptic story is like a puzzle in darks and lights and sneaks up on you. I like the form used, the feeling of a maze.

    nice. i'm pleased that the story found a home in the world---so thanks danny.

    and for the lovely reads/comments.

    the piece came out of waking up one snowy morning to find essex under a heavy white fog. it seemed like basic orientations were blurred or leaking into each other--up/down inside/outside. i built the piece out from that.

    I read this piece here first, and then at fwriction review yesterday and I love the structure, the word choice and the inventive puzzle behind it. Only you, Stephen, could create something so dazzling. Congrats to you and Danny! And a nod to Fictionaut, also.

    Good news, good story, and fwriction must be the best name for a magazine of late. Thanks.
