I love the way you reveal information in your little stories. You're really good at it. It's that ability that I envy in you! <BR/><BR/>The example you shared is, in my mind, a little contrived. It's written by a writer. Conversational writing is more fun! <BR/><BR/>That's why my friends like my emails more than my bosses liked my writing.

Your recap feels real and honest, like something a "regular" person would say, whereas the other one seems like the author is trying a bit hard, or hoping to be published. Dont' be too hard on yourself because the only thing that matters is keeping people's interest, and obviously you do that. :)Mrs. Casehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11019377557104114920noreply@blogger.com
