"maybe it's the detail in each of your pieces that have me addicted to your style...I can't quite say but this story has such a real feeling to it. It flows so easily and entracnes the reader. The plots you deal with are so very real and ordinary which is why they are so good. In this story there's a deep connection to poetry...I wonder why I haven't see much poetry from you?" -- e. rocco caldwell.
