I was a little concerned that a lot of people thought I wrote Merchant Ivory movies. I also thought if I was ever going to write something strange and difficult, that was the time. ↗

But my question is, am I compromising by adapting my words for the audience and where is the line beyond which I am not adapting words, but changing my position? ↗
