    Do you mean Hill's absence is periodic? Mmmmmm. Like my mom's postpartum episodes in the past. Come back, Hill. I'm not sure with my article "a".

    Hill commented on my first poetry posts and gave me memorable and encouraging advice. I can't say I ever exchanged much information with him apart from 1 or 2 replies, yet somehow he made an impression on me and stayed in my memory.
    Every time I think to rhyme, I feel a cold friendly shadow whisper in my ear 'Don't do that lame trick'.

    Two replies only? There was a month when Hill critiqued my short stories everyday. Patient. Helpful. But honestly harsh--which I liked.

    Disregard that advice when you're writing a sonnet, a rondeau, heroic couplets, a villanelle, or any kind of verse form that requires end rhyme. (Just follow the procedure about meter and stresses, and your rhymes will less likely to be "lame.")
