Time stutters…what a brilliant line, perfect for the moment, captures Usira’s experience brilliantly, the inability to express clearly the emotional and psychological drama playing out in front of him. And always love the way you end the piece keeping us wanting more, not a contrived cliffhanger, but nudge on the door to close one scene and prep us as readers for another. Thanks as always!!!
Thank YOU, as always! I am a fan of staying in the POV character's head & using that to achieve maximum immersion. It's not only important but also useful to think a lot about how the character would experience any given moment. Everything we experience is subjective, after all. Glad it landed so well in this scene!
