Sometimes I shouldn't use words

I think the sniffiness about amazon reviews here is more a professional critics versus bloggers thing than a creator's reaction. Wood is defending his patch. Authors seem to vary greatly about wanting people to read their work in a particular way, you get the impression that the less talented are more possessive. It's about confidence maybe, you write to communicate so if people get the wrong impression you failed, or you write as a game and the more people want to play the better but that means letting go of the specific meaning.
