I jumped ahead of myself. I still haven't read part four yet (but I am right after I leave this) but I needed to say now: I love the story even more now.
It's great because in reading the commentary, almost everything you touched on in regards to why you did it that way or whatever was stuff I had already picked up on, except for how I was never exactly clear on WHY I loved it. Reading your reasoning and thoughts gave me so many, "Oh yeah, THAT'S why the moment was so poignant/funny/other emotion" moments. Your writing is so very deliberate that I can't imagine you having moments like I do, where someone will say that they got x out of whatever story I wrote and I wrote it thinking I was getting y across. Does that make sense? I think it's very cool.
I love the backstage pass to the writing of this story. You did a great job with it. And also, you have a dove? That's very cool.
