Liked your sweep of literary heartbreak. Although Canada in its very and vast newness offers the literate eye a fresh pallette every day to sketch out relationships. We still lack the operatic subtext of time necessary to compeat with the European and Asian sagas. Romance in its apprehension/lost is best realizied within an expansive framework!Yes our wilderness by its very existance is the gruel of great backdrops.P.S. Mister Cohen's gravelly voice by its implied experience does cheat the eye a bit by lifting its ear off of the page.

Although rejection slips are a rite of passage for most starting writers. Most would do better submitting brief samples of their most concise work to online groups for comment.Or approach one of the many writers in residence at city universities/important libraries.Not only would it disabuse many of their inflated rank against their peers.Saving them much heartache and expense. It might open their eyes to the quantity but not quality of work that exists in almost evryone's top desk drawer.Being an adequate blogger/texter is no gauge to printable success.But if you are insisstant remember there are other coutries plus a variety of printed sources.eg. commerial or obit script.
