You always do my work justice. And I appreciate you taking the time to read and comment.

And general impressions are always welcome.
I hear you about their shifting worlds. I’ll try and get the transitions to be a bit clearer, and maybe by doing that I can break up some of that dialogue, because that has always worried me.
And here is one of those things I like to hear. You are a visual person, whereas, I don’t think I am which is why I missed the whole surrounding thing. I try really hard actually, to avoid detailed descriptions, being of the opinion that I shouldn’t describe it; I should have the characters interact with what’s around them. And now thanks to the comments I have received, I’m getting an inkling of what needs to be done. Thanks!
