Ten Ways To Tell You're Reading One of My Stories
1. There are lesbians. There just are.
2. Polysyndeton yay! (To borrow an example from... I think it was![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
florahart, It was a day full of blank and blank and blank.)
3. Iamb what iamb. In other words, since I found out I could do this with some facility in college and wrote an entire novel in iambic pentameter, I create iambs in all my sentences.
4. Commas! No em-dashes! Commas! Commas which then have to be defended bysovay!
5. Lust objects have red hair.
6. Lavish, unconventionally-placed descriptions of food.
7. It's not set in the modern world. At least, not the real modern world.
8. The dialogue is slightly pretentious. I speak in a slightly pretentious manner myself, I think.
9. Um. I ran out. Number 9 is open for suggestion or interpretation. Except I know what number 10 is.
10. You have to wait a year for the next one.

Nine, nine, nine, that crazy number nine -- times any number you can find, it all comes back to nine!
Two times nine is eighteen. Eight and one is nine.
