Great words, Ned!

Your writing made me think of Jim Harrison, Edward Abbey, and Ned Mudd.

Reading this makes me feel like a well-fed tick. Loved the wider orbit thing. I wish I could write like this.

This is stunning work. Both in cadence and orbit of ideas. I wasn’t ready for it to end. One of the best things i’ve read in a long while. Thanks

Pretty much the best thing I read this year so far. Thanks!

Your pictures are neat, as in neato. I am a “famous”photographer and I know what I’m talking about.

I just sent Tonya 60 bucks. I hope that let's me in for a year.

It does! Thank you so much, Rowland. (I’m the publisher, to answer your previous question. It’s great to have you as a reader!)

Straight from the horses mouth! I get it. It is strange (and rarely rewarding) reading artful prose on a computer.

You write good. Paint, too. Who is Tonya Morton?

Meant in the best way, but it goes on too long. A writer of your caliber needs to be sipped like Bourbon ( tho I prefer rye), not quaffed like a Big Gulp. I'd love to savor it on a printed page, not this tiny phone screen.

And I mean the soft creamy, quality pages of a good book, not printer paper., which is what I would get if I was to print it out.

Maybe I'll come back later and savor some more.

Maybe.

huh, must be me .. but i’ll savor good bourbon all day. Especially when it’s the best thing on the menu.
