I again appreciate the melding of artistic cultures (writing, illustration, design)and flexibility you talk of in letting certain aspects 'create' themselves...Brine Blankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14225308769654640156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-22312173029113966452007-12-05T07:14:00.000-05:002007-12-05T07:14:00.000-05:00Certainly there are limitations to how much text t...Certainly there are limitations to how much text to put on each page.

I am jealous at their seemingly unlimited ability to write pages and pages full of interesting sentences.<BR/>Yet at the same time I am embarrassed as I often fail to understand the meaning of their proze.
