I do agree with your friend that your writing gets better all the time. You raise the bar each time. I just read your fic. And I thought maybe I'll comment a little bit here too.
You used the words 'cathartic' and 'support' and 'love' and 'network' in your AN. And yes you have been through so much over the last couple of years.
The writing you do is a reflection of who you are, who you are becoming. I wouldn't say 'dark'. Melancholic and atmospheric and most of all, with having a strong grasp of how people relate to each other, how close we hold people to our hearts, and how people drift away, drawn from observations and life experiences. You write with honesty which we can feel, you write with love we can feel and you write an understanding that we can feel.
I love your fics, because we can feel them. I love your fics because you have a grasp of language that spills with an understanding on how words should be, I love your fics because they have a reality to them that a lot of other writers can only dream to grasp at.
They are more detailed with respect to human inferences as you've progresses. I recall one of your early fics which I read, I recall it was about going through home, and how the home felt. And the stars of the fic were only implied similar to this one (as I cannot seem to find the one I was thinking of) and it was all about the minutae of the day, the home, the surroundings. But no less breathtaking. I think for me, the beauty is faceted, like how light catches on a jewel when you turn it this way or that, and how you see different things in the angle that it is turned, either mirrored or a different point of view. It is all you, and it is all love.
Something got lost in there somewhere ... teaches me that I shouldn't ever post verbose comments at a quarter to four. Long and short of it, however you write, it's right for me and I love it truly madly and deeply and I really don't care (it is after all ass o'clock in the morning) how stalkerishly freakish that makes me sound.
Aren't you glad I live half the world away, am happily married with children whom I adore. *HUGSNGCLINGS*
