Another thing that caught my ear was the interesting rhythms - it's very melodic, but the phrasing feels very natural.

Super job.


Thanks. We're pleased you noticed the archaic structure - that comes from reading many CW period letters. "I take my pen in hand" was common also. Thanks also for mentioning the rhythm- Tom really helped with that. We appreciate your thoughtful remarks.

Nice job on the whole package, everybody who participated did an outstanding job!

I also liked the video.


Thanks Pat. Yep, fought by the young and ordered so by adults whom for some occasions should know better. Glad you liked it!
