Thanks for your opinions, Jack. I think you make some pretty good points.
My main point of debate before I revise again is making sure I didn't hurt myself in this revision. I can't help, but feel that Jill is right. The first version, to me has something that the second lacks. A punchiness, maybe. Todd suggested shorter lines, but somehow I wound up fattening them even more. I'm very uncertain how to proceed. I was very proud of the first version as a start, but I feel that I've gone off track.
