@ Heidenkind - I took lurid and fruity to mean the sort of description that makes you feel the scene and not just understand the scene. I think a lot of literature uses that kind of prose.
ReplyDelete@ Gautami - yep, short answers are great! I flatter myself that I managed to keep it so simple!

Thanks for visiting my blog! I love owned books too. Apart from being cheaper, you can get some great covers and they're a bit loved so it doesn't matter if they are a little bashed up.
