It's hauntingly beautiful. I found it on YouTube, sent it to my son, and he LOVES it. It surprised me since his taste in music "used" to be so different from mine.

About voice: How does an author know when she's found hers? Does the reader let her know? Writer's Voice has always been a mystery to me.

I love all his paintings that I've seen. What a pity the prints don't do his work justice. My favorite Van Gogh is Starry Night that he painted when he was going blind. My writing has changed over the years, some for the better and some not. I hope I am getting better.Caroline Clemmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14914658854159456335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625093777073151860.post-69718984423648591862018-05-08T18:03:30.340-05:002018-05-08T18:03:30.340-05:00I've been writing for more than 20 years.

That might tweak "voice" somewhat, but for me, it's only a little. I'm still the same verbose blatherer I started out to be who could have written "War and Peace."
