Like the rhythm of a poem becomes much less important when you find out it's an acrostic. I don't know how I'd approach that puzzle, it's quite difficult. If you had vidding powers that would be a much easier blend (sorry, if you've never seen a Buffy/Angel vid I don't have any examples to show you).<br /><br /><I>I think it speaks to the Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3881774.post-1111546427989254822005-03-22T21:53:00.000-05:002005-03-22T21:53:00.000-05:00Well, I have no idea why one story doesn't work an...Well, I have no idea why one story doesn't work and the other two do, because I sent them all at the same time.<BR/><BR/>As to the story with the lyrics ("Far From the Reason"), I wrote it as a response to a challenge to combine lyrics from a modern song with a "Combat!" story.
