Have you made meaningful relationships on this site?

@EugenieLaBorgia ON THE INTERNET?! Wow, miracles DO happen. 😉

@GirlPulse Not miracles but the process of meticulary selecting those who have demonstrated consistently certain writing qualities that I admire; those qualities not being dictated by grammar or syntax but by a certain style which reflects the writer's true nature!

Ahh, THAT makes a lot of sense actually. I appreciate the observation. You can fake it for a little while, but eventually the more you write, your true character is going to come out. Is that basically what you're saying?

@GirlPulse Yes! Absolutely! It's easy to recognize, too, certain rhythms in their writing which betray their true natures!

Hmm. I'm curious what you mean by "rhythms in their writing." That's a little different from what I was thinking. The people I became friends with back on EP would post lengthy stories, so you really got to know who they were. (And I like to think I was the same.) But I don't quite understand the "rhythm" part of that. Do you mind elaborating?

@GirlPulse All written words comprise stressed and unstressed syllables. Like measured bars of music notes, they establish a rhythm and, like musical compositions, that rhythm has its signature key and follows an orderly pattern - referred to in the written word as style. The metre, the pace and repetition of those syllables, reveal - with some careful analysis - intent and emotion. These, though, to which I refer are just basics.

Hmm, what an interesting idea. I wouldn't personally want to judge someone based on the cadence of their speech, but each person is different.

@GirlPulse It is not 'judge' nor is it an 'idea'. Science has many branches utilised by different authorities which contribute to their countries security.

@GirlPulse My assessment of your post, for example, is one of an antagonized brat who attempts to berate any SW member by which the quality of her own 'writings' is threatened. Pas the message on to your 'friends', too.

Well okay then. :) Sounds like you're not going to want to be friends with me then. The assessment doesn't ring true to me, but no worries. It's all good, you do you. Hope you find more friends with good rhythm.
