I just surfed by your LJ discussion of my story--(thank you muchly for hosting that!)--and I see that you got there without me. *g* There are a couple of really, really smart readers on that page!

And I'll take my cookie! I don't think anyone's said "I love you," in one of my stories for a couple of years. Except, okay, Josh Lyman, but he doesn't count!

Feel free to chime in, there -- or not. It's a very interesting discussion for variations in reader-response.

Oh, it's fascinating--and I would chime in--but I find that "the author" is a discussion killer. I restrain myself to encourage it to go on!

Not just "the author" -- you well know that any HS or college English teacher would *slay* for this kind of close reading-based discussion of works where the author is *dead* and never going to say what their authorial intention was.

*cough*--well, yes. I did in fact sacrifice this here goat (*gestures*), hoping for this kind of close-reading based discussion. This is only one of the many examples of where fandom is superior to the Englit classroom.

(And I'm not dead, I'm just pining for the fjords!)
