[QUOTE="Fladian, post: 127675, member: 5833"] It is a style I rarely, or rather never, use. But it has come out better than I expected, to be honest. Especially when you consider that I haven't written anything for months thanks to a somewhat busy time. (I have been brainstorming [b]a lot[/b] though) I noticed that myself in just about everything recently. I'm a bit curious of the cause, which can be three of the following things: 1. I have been skipping English class for several weeks now. 2. It's just this story; it is something I've never tried before and nearly every sentence had to be reconstructed every time to make a point. 3. As you said, perhaps I'm a little rusty. The entire [i]story[/i] swings back from present to past and once to the future, if I remember right. That was no mistake, it was supposed to be like that. That and another sentence (which I can't find at the moment; but I surely haven't removed it) bothered me intensively while writing it. I guess I couldn't find a better way to word it than I did at the moment. None of it would have been the case. Nothing was suppose to be going on and it isn't supposed to be related to something larger (how unusual it is for me, it really is a [i]stand-alone[/i]). Partly it has been based on two songs, as I mentioned at the top (James Blunt & Guus Meeuwis) and maybe the event with my best friend should have happened a little while ago, perhaps then it would have been more fitting, it being Valentine and stuff. =) A particular [i]friend[/i] also requested activity in the Anvil story forum and nearly pleated for another Story Contest, which I declined from because of the low activity in general. That was the main reason (or rather, motivation) why I decided to write it. With your story, Undead, posted now as well, he should probably be satisfied for the time being. [/QUOTE]
