beautifully written.  i appreciate that there's a little sweet with the bitter. 

Response from cathedral carver (Author of Bad Days Are Going Around)

Ah, thank you. Yes, I know there was definitely some bitter mixed in there. I seem to like brewing it that way, best, lol. I'm glad you enjoyed.

Missed this on LJ, but so glad I found it here.  Your words move me once more, cc.  At 5K I cannot call this spare, but your style is lean, no superfluous words, and yet it packs so much meaning and beauty.  Recovery is a sometimes slow and painful experience, and you've captured the hope and despair of the process so well.  And the happy ending is always a bonus.  Bravo!

Response from cathedral carver (Author of Bad Days Are Going Around)

Hello, you! I'm glad you found it here, too :) What a lovely review. Thank you. Recovery is slow and painful, yes? I'm thrilled you think I did the process justice. And, I do adore my happy endings, such as they are, lol. Thank you!

That was... so poignant, so beautiful... Very powerful and moved me to the brink of tears. You are a supremely talented writer; the style of your writing in this piece was perfect. It was just like Severus' voice: no clutter of unecessary descriptions, each sentence reading as though you were transcribing his innermost thoughts. Short, yet commanding, dramatic, and infinitely compelling. Thank you for this story.

Response from cathedral carver (Author of Bad Days Are Going Around)

What a flattering review. Thank you so very much. I pour a lot into my stories, and to receive praise like this really blows me away. I really am touched, and I'm so happy you were, too. Thank  you.

The emotions are raw and unsanitised.  No easy fix for his problem, much as in real life. :)

Response from cathedral carver (Author of Bad Days Are Going Around)

I always prefer a little angst and pain before my (relatively) happy endings, lol. Thanks for this feedback. I'm glad you enjoyed :)
