a lifetime of working in a nuclear power plant has given me a healthy green glow
Back to popslash:
. public relations - the group banter in this one reminded me of one of Jae's stories. I know it's not really good form to compare authors, but seriously, Jae's group banter is my favourite kind, so that is a high compliment!
. the most craziest wonderful time of the year - there's something very jagged about this story, like it's pieced together with scotch tape. Which isn't to say that it's unhappy in the slightest, just that it's almost uncomfortably true-to-life and all the more appealing for it.
. sparkly souls slow dancing - this story's just a bit off-kilter, like it's in a limbo between magical realism and wry metaphor, and so prettily turned that the seams don't show at all. I especially like the little character traits that are added in without a big to-do, but striking enough to really create embellishment.
And that's it for SeSa!
