Reading your essay, it sounds like you use emoporn more the way I use peak emotional moment, which isn't necessarily the climax of the story. My moment of intensity can come anywhere--actually, I'd like several in a long story, please, plus the regular climax--but it is going to be written at a higher level of intensity that the story around it. And those are the moments that keep showing up in story finder communities, as they aren't necessarily a part of the main story's climax.

And you should go mention your definition in the emoporn entry, if it hasn't been mentioned already. This is good stuff.
