To begin with for my first response, the reason Alice was interrupting the dormouses story was because she was a child. The writer was attempting to portray the way in which a child can ask an immense amount of questions and make an over ran attempt at rationalizing every possible aspect of life.

Secondly the reason the queen was hyperactively executing people was a dramatization by the author that was meant to show the inherent reaction by people to point blame, scrutinize and punish. This is also why the queen was so concurrently angry, she had become stressed out from the continual push her psyche had to blame and persecute all who she believed had crossed her, transferring her paranoia into anger.

Lastly i don't believe Alice has decided whether she wants to escape or not. shes currently in a somewhat "flux" of reality where she doesent really know what shes doing or who she is, so until she truly does and reaches a level plane with reality again she will not have decided whether she truly wishes to leave.

lookin good. Dive into a couple of more questions. Also Tom, you are almost writing enough on each question to be devoting a paragraph for each question. You might have to elaborate a bit more, but it would certainly tighten up your writing. You are developing into a crafter of words. However, don't get to fancy with your vocabulary in a context where others might not even know what the heck you are saying. In other words, consider your audience before as you choose your words. You take a chance of alienating people if you talk over their heads.
I'm so glad someone from the Creative Writing class is still here. Man, was that a blast or what?
I still haven't heard your new cd. I keep forgetting to take it with me when I leave. I will give it a listen though!

The use of big words sets a good tone for a response-and let me tell ya, yours blew me away; they seem to get better with each assignment-but keep in mind that there is somewhat of a broad range of people reading this blog. Some words are not so common in speech. But you are an awesome writer. I really did learn more from your post than any other. Great job my friend.
