LeGuin wrote a famous essay, "From Elfland to Poughkeepsie," about how she hated stories with fantasy creatures that talked like Damon Runyon characters. If I understand her point, it's that the universe portrayed should be consistent; should hang together. If the humor and snark are present, they either must be a well-established part of the protagonists's character, or of the culture or subculture she's from, or both.Barton Paul Levensonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07630802738456749652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2015064410387223894.post-47433730878770073192010-04-28T10:46:37.568-04:002010-04-28T10:46:37.568-04:00Thanks Robyn!

It brings a ton of depth in some instances and never hurts as long as its not overdone.
