Review of Telling Time  
Review by RipRoaringWriter
Rated: E | (4.5)
You pull out the feelings that we all file through almost on a daily basis - at least one of them each day. Your consistency is the cohesiveness, the repetition of ironies - compartmentalized, interchangability - impersonal, personal. And then the conflicts everyone faces - obsession that are unfounded but provide some pay off, convinding ourselves of what's not there, most of it self-inflicted but not able to do anything about it, at least for now - waiting may bring solutions - waiting for the impossible or the inevitable or the truth that always surfaces? That's what I heard - am I close? Overcomplicating but still looking for true connections in relationships. Your theme is strong, the ending a conclusion that doesn't conclude - since you're waiting for the conclusion. I really liked it.

Excellent! I don't agree with all the theories, but I read intently after putting your writing style and disabilities together. What you do, no matter how long it takes you, is an art. My attention was so rapt, while reading your essay, because I also have adult ADD and am just coming to terms with the limitations it leaves. - I was encouraged for myself, and impressed that you are consistent with your style and voice. Your sentences are a bit choppy, like mine are. Transitions aren't easy to come by - they take almost as much creative work, for me, as plots and research. - I really get the memory thing. I can forget how to spell a simple word, and concepts may or may not hang around in my head. - String theory! Amazing. I'm writing an article on ADD and visual spacial learners. One point is that in a class setting, if a lecturer is engaging, the VSL is in right brain gear and getting it - even the abstract concepts that others have a hard time with. As soon as things go rote, the brain goes to sleep. That might explain why some really high stuff settles down with you. --- I did just want to let you know that I appreciated your essay. Thanks for listening to the little voice that told you to write --- regardless of any seeming limitations. Besides, who's normal?
