RE: Banged up in an Indian hospital!

Somewhere tonight I think I saw you ask about whether this piece worked if written in 2nd person voice. (Don't make me go back and discover where I saw this. Please!!) I'm here to say I am not a fan of 2nd person voice usually, however this one works splendidly!! It makes your reader part of the action ... it makes him / her experience exactly what happened to you in ways I don't think you could achieve otherwise.

This piece would lose a lot of its power if you put it in another voice. This one works nicely. You did a great job with it.

Thanks! You must have seen this in the Steem Engine's post promotion channel on Discord. 2nd person can be a bitch to work with, but I think imagining yourself violently ill is probably something most people can relate to. It's not something I'm gonna do regularly, but I'm glad it worked here.

That's gotta be it. I'm the curator there. (Gonna find a home for this one somewhere. Count on it.)
