Nope, it wasn't too clever– I mean that in a good way, it was just clever enough?

"after they've had their first taste of a man", this i liked a lot. Not only coming from a creepy old dude kind of...

Yes, yeah, a good story. The first one I read all the way through to the end. I like how you kind of, cliffhanger'd the end of each chapter like a real pro. It was a little bit of a stretch when the...

A tear rolled down my cheek as I stood on the darkened stage looking at the props and flats in place for an upcoming show. It had been a lot of years since I had been in this auditorium, a lot of...

Ha ha Ha, yeah. The bad old days!

I've got a million vignettes in me, all busting to get through, to get out! If I could just whisk them with the right colors, hmm…

Consider this. The light that bounced off the pond, your uncle, the fish jumping, all of that – the light that bounced off it, all those years ago is still hurtling through the universe somewhere....

Aww…Kiz, you're always so sweet.
But the story sucks – actually, the story is workable. I was trying something new. But the flow is all wrong, kind of inside-out, and telegraphed, bouncing around...

He he he – I like cats. Sounds like you may have a little familiarity with locks, and their undoing!
Even though this story was, beyond belief, you told it well – I had to keep reading.

Yeah, yeah, yeah… it was alright, I guess. [1 beat] I liked it too. You make it look easy – like as if you do it all the time, write, I mean.

Unnoticeable

The house was the closest thing to an opium den that could exist in a town like this in a time like this. It was one of those places that you didn't notice – it wasn't a dump really...

Yeah yeah! I like it too, read 'er right through! And it's after midnight here – but I had to finish it. That Dewey is more of a gentleman that I am, ha ha ha!

Huntley in Hinckley fashion! I had to read right to the bitter end!

One thing caught me up. Probably just my comprehension. The young boys couldn't have been around in the 70s, and now I know you...

I read along and I thought you had changed,here was a big project, well researched, with the geography and the names and word meanings, until I read the line,


The dove looked out but stood fast...

Thank you for your kind words, Mister Hunley. Any feedback is good – I like it – but something positive, and especially from you? Dope!

But isn't it all autobiographical, I mean to some extent?...

We had a small, brass hand pump for the boat. It had a coarse screen on the bottom so that when you were pumping out the last bit of water from the bottom, it wouldn't suck up big pieces of paint...

yes, of course it's sad, so also good. Your story took me back to those times. I forgot how desperately busy I was with that whole, simulated falling in love business.

a readable style – kind of like a microscope going in and out of focus. But it soon needs to zero in on something.

Effigy

ALL RIGHT! No offense to anybody I don't know but it's nice to hear from someone who's been around.

The problem is that I don't believe this site is moderator anymore. I'm afraid that what will...

yeah, okay… you got me so far. What happens next?

okay, okay… Then why is this thread now gone to a second page?

I'll tell you why, because lots of folks, maybe back in the periphery or background of this thing have wanted to have a go at it!...

history could've been fascinating. I wonder if I would've turned out any differently if it hadn't been so dreary…

I like, like, liked it in its original form :-)

Yeah, thanks for writing back. I thought this all must've been a dream, especially since, I met a man on this forum, and it's the only way I have to contact him.

I imagine that logos probably has...

Last I could figure out, it looks like there was a tie last year.

Have I just failed to read what everyone else knows? My life is kind of like this, these days, Alzheimer's?

it's like the time...

Dear AuntShirky –

I admire anyone who finishes something, anything! Good work.
