Ah, to be honest, my complaints are far less serious and far more petty then all that. : P For one, I'm strongly in favor of people writing what they will, even if it may not be for me - and I enjoy works that are far less adroit then yours. ; ) No, this has nothing to do with my being uncomfortable and more with something rather lamer, I feel, but what the hell. There is such a mystery, such an enigma to the work before. All of it hints at the ending, so I think I spoke out of turn when I suggest that it isn't foreshadowed; but the clarity of the ending is so blunt that it doesn't let the mind come to it's own conclusions, which is one of my (personal) favorite parts of a story, and so I'm gnashing my terrible teeth that I can't puzzle over the ending, ha!

But no - you're quite skilled enough a writer if your works so far have proven anything, and more to the point, I am in support of anyone writing works that are cathartic to them, for whatever reasons they may have. Even if it leaves fans of ambiguity like me marvelling at the abruptness - well, as someone who has quite a few abrupt endings themself, who am I to complain..?

And honestly, I feel the word pretentious is overused. I vote we take it back and marvel in the syrupy decadance of weaving words and enjoying them! ;)
