Finders keeper

The best writing is not quite like a riddle.  It doesn't spoon feed, it simply reveals.  It doesn't try to fool either, it provides.  I like languange.  I am reading Amy Tan's Joy Luck Club right now and if I could produce anything close to what she has created I would consider myself a real writer.
I choose Iggys entry.  It put me in his head sitting on a cushion.  It was true, without too much intellect--it provided details and allowed me to assign my own emotions to the situation.
