Still wrapping my head around this series of events. A wild story, a wild life! Looking forward to seeing how it ends up in Pt 3!

Beautifully written. I really dig your languid, sinuous prose. Your voice is very engaging and the writing is simple and understated. In other words: You do the job :) I relate to the shiftlessness, the moving from job to job, the restlessness of being free and open and independent and determined in your twenties. This is good material.
