I need to stop lying to myself. I think I started to enjoy Carl DaVinci's short stories that I decided to give it another go.

Instead of writing I read The Script between last night and this morning, and I loved the story. I think it is wonderful how people can meet in all sorts of circumstances, however unlikely, and come together despite their respective hardships and impasses.

Carl DaVinci's The Script is a Hollywood-based drama when a teen star takes a starring role in an upcoming Hollywood film as a gay man, when to his knowledge at the time, is straight. He meets his co-star and develops an deeper relationship which flourished into something the two of them could no longer deny was something more than just rehearsals and retakes.

The parental influences, media influences, and other external conflicts that Marcus, the main character faced, only dug deep within himself to find answers he was not prepared to find, and when he dug himself out of the hole after a realization of how much he missed David, his co-star and eventual lover, transformed into a new individual - something that none of the characters foresaw.

It is always fascinating how I find new ways of how authors are able to convey the same, if not a deeper implied intensity and details in short stories. It always gives me perspective on what sort of style I want to write. In a way I want to dive into details of the surroundings, I want to immerse the reader into every detail of every step the character takes, yet something as simple with one sentence can sometimes portray more than what a paragraph can at times.

Again, thank you Frosty for the recommendation to read Carl's work, and thank you Carl for writing another amazing series! I look forward to spending my writing time away by reading your stories instead
