The more I learn about Powys from reading these the more I like him.

He was a very sweet man. I think that is why I like him. Or partially why. It is good to see a person like that who was very talented too.

I’m attracted to his eccentricity, his aversion to intellectuals, and his odd, sort of timeless way of expressing himself.

I’m reading your story, gotta get back to it!

I'm blushing. Nothing embarrasses me more than someone reading my stories. I think that is why I write them. And, yeah, I also love his aversion to intellectuals. He had a malice toward them and preferred to give lectures to "regular people."

I loved the story, Glen.

Really?? Thanks for reading that! I know it takes people's time to read things so I always hope they at least like something about it. It's why I keep the Powys articles very short. Thank you again, Simon. That made me feel good.
