It is good to see that in the world wide Web's wilderness (where most of it is dark web, a little of light web) there is bright spot--your blog is interesting, creatish and good for inspiration.

Someone with the solid literary taste bud is around, and letting me look again at the themes of deconstruction, structuralism, dadaism, and textual criticism. Don't be mis-led. I am a librarian and not a literary genius. Love such thread bear analysis, and literary adventures to allow the reader see thro' text, voice, and messages (and as a bottomline, wouldn't be forced to say 'message is lost in the medium').

Best wishes.
