I'd especially be interested in knowing how someone who read the story
first, then saw the illustrated (1 picture) version on SOL or my web-site
feels the picture fits the story.
This idea of illustrating stories at all was rather fueled by Stories
OnLine, which has a code for it.

Not very well. The babe in the picture doesn't hold a candle to your
description of Ellie. I don't think boobs that mongo are particularly
attractive, but, then, that's just me. I'll probably never get it
right--I keep writing about women with small breasts and big bushes.

The pic does not fit at all, IMO: Ellie's supposed to be an extremely
beautiful supermodel, not someone with ugly cow's mammaries.

However you are entitled to your views as well, and thank you for the
feedback. Helps me decide if I'm ever going to do this again.
By all means, do the writing thing again -- with any pics you yourself
would like to have in them.
I'll do as I've always done: I paint the canvas in my mind's eye --
that way they are never wrong.
Being vague about how things look, smell, taste, etc. is a good
technique for an interesting story: Heinlein, frex, never described
things very much; one could study for the real world things and fill
in the other blanks in one's mind. He did make a buck or two with his
writing.
