Boy, shows you how my memory skills are degrading; it wasn't NXE related at all, it was Wounded Rose. At this point the Symphony has come along so far so fast that it only feels like WR was as long ago as NXE...

I was right about the door-slamming part, though, and the tetchy part. I stick by my original simile - having the so-called Serious Techniques of Literary Criticism applied to my works makes me feel like I was washing my car and some guy in a beret came up and started sniffing derisively at the sloppiness of my sponge technique.
