I spent a few decades teaching writing--not the kind strangely called "creative," but plain old producing-prose-that-delivers-meaning. And what I discovered (partly by observing my own processes) was...
My line was indeed clever and you guys have parsed it out like a bunch of first year lawyers trying to meet their billable hours quota. :smile-new: Carry on.
The late Jeff Beck once said of Barney Kessell :"With regard to style, I don't like messy sound. People like Barney Kessell, who use plenty of chords, are what I call messy". Contrarian as ever...
