You know, Jennifer, Bruce Springsteen originated the line your title comes from. (Robert DeNero ‘borrowed’ it.) Just sayin… . I must also add that I’ve written novels in which each chapter is in a different voice ( four) and the ability to get the cadence and vocabulary of that character is difficult and essential. Coarse language is a tool but not exclusively necessary ( I’m sure you know that.) Bravo. ‘Here’s lookin at you, Kid.’
