Reactions and Reviews
I was hunting through the archive tonight, looking for stuff I haven't read in a while or--rolling the dice--never read. I ended up lighting on cmshaw's stories. I have read them, but it's been a year or so. In some stories, like Silk, the writer does enough good things that I can enjoy re-reading it, but enough squicky things that I find it hard to rec--and does one right after the other, which just amazes me. Best example of this phenomenon in one small package is the sentence beginning: "Bracing Jim's hip with a splay-fingered grip...." Splay-fingered grip! That's fabulous! And it rhymes with "hip" and it's in iambic pentameter! That's excruciating! In the story as a whole there are passages where the blend of realism, characterization, and eroticism make the writing as good as cake batter. Then a scene or a phrase comes along and it's like--fly in the batter, spit it out! [1]
