I agree with you about readers being lazy. The instant response media have diseducated a lot of folk. For technically rich literature, I mean. But it would be a shame if those that were left didn't get the best from writers ... this has been a dilemma for me, a long time. Shall I make poetry to be sucked up in a moment by somebody who has only a moment for it? Or make densely packed pieces, with figures and links to the max, for people who have been missing that, missing the sort of work that artists make exactly to study, sort out, link with life, and think/feel about??
Been doing both, and they're both fun!
I reckon the key to this dilemma is to make a distinction between those two audiences. They both exist here on ES and are both interested in writing! But probably we can't write for both audiences in the same piece, except quite rarely when the subject and its apt treatment just happen to work out that way?
I'm replying to a message of yours that replies to a remark of mine that I can't remember! So good you gave me something to talk about!
