Do you sound arrogant, incompetent or annoying?? Sweetie, you could never!
Your learning by osmosis is pretty amazing then, because I sure can't do that ;-P (I heard the bit about the strong editing, too ;-) )
I especially love that about your writing, that you like to play with voices (and accents!), and I've heard you say before that this makes it easier for you to pull of different voices for different characters, and that may be, but I think that's real special. But it is really more than the voices. It's like you perfectly imitate a style or genre, but additionally give it your special Alexis Hall feel.
While we're on it... I've read a lot about the process of the first draft for Prosperity to the final version later, with the cant and all, but I don't actually know why you wrote it. What inspired you? Which ideas came first?
