Technology in general, not only social media, has altered our lives in way few people could have envisioned. Sooner or later we'll adapt but caution should always be practiced when on line. Thanks for the praise
-
Since Tijuana keeps coming up. you and @Wesley8890 should take a look at this story from @Mann Ramblings
-
Thank you!
-
Thanks! I try to round out the characters and show different facets of their lives. There's more to Chipper than just his voice.
-
That one was too obvious. Chipper likes the old tunes, but Empire sounded like more his speed.
-
Yep... definitely not a nice guy LOL You may not want to wait standing up, you may get tired. The next Squad story is only halfway written and won't post for about six months.
-
Thanks, bud!
-
Thank you for validating my fiction! LOL Few people realize participants in reality shows sign away a lot of rights to be on the air. And it's not only TV shows. Anyone climbing The Vessel at New York City's Hudson Yards agrees the owners of the structure have the right to use any pictures taken from it and share in public. Without remuneration. It's similar to the user agreements for apps and other software, they have us by the balls without alternatives.

Big Brother's watching whether we like it or not. Even when we distance ourselves from social media, someone else's posts can get us in trouble. If we don't want risk the possibility of getting in trouble, we have to be very vanilla about how we behave in public.

In another story I mentioned my character had been told he was not only representing the political candidate he supported but his school too when he made appearances on TV or in person. It does reflect badly on schools/employers when an associate makes antisemitic, racist, or homophobic posts.
-
Unfortunately, it's a fact of life. Colleges and employers don't want to find themselves in a bad situation by accepting/hiring someone that could make them look bad. What amazes me is people don't seem to learn. How may minors have been arrested this year for posting things considered a threat? Or did Roxane really expect not to get in trouble by comparing a black woman to a monkey? Social media reviews are just a new thing but background checks and credit reports have been used for a long time. Hell, 30 years ago I had to take a lie detector test for a bank job. And it was in management! They made me an offer but I was pissed off about the polygraph, told them so, and rejected the job.
-
The story will be around after I finish posting, coming back to read the entire thing in a sitting or two's a possibility. Social media's definitely a double edged sword.
-
As is often the case with me, I try to round out the story to ensure I cover most eventualities. Win or lose, Chipper's getting ready for the future.
-
LOL, you're gonna have to wait for the next story to get longer chapters
-
He did say he took business courses in college so at least he has an idea of how the entertainment world works. Too many aspiring young performers are clueless and get taken advantage of
-
In today's environment lawyering up is a requirement for anyone with even the slightest possibility of facing litigation. Chipper's lucky he has Ethan to guide him through the legal stuff.
-
“The offer’s legitimate.” Miles Abramonov handed Chipper and Ethan fresh Corona bottles and joined them at the poolside table. His wife had taken their kids inside to allow the men to discuss business without distractions. Chipper adjusted the towel around his shoulders. As the sun raced toward the horizon, the temperature had dipped. “So what’s the next step?” “Nothing right now.” Following a joint workout first thing in the morning, Ethan spent a couple of hours in the office while

Excellent reference. I'll stick to past tense, I like my flashbacks to be in the past. 😁
-
Was Brad added to the list recently?
-
I think a lot of writers would love to have their fictional characters appear. Pat may not be part of that group. Well written and entertaining. Good job, my friend. (I was expecting 15k word or more LOL)
-
Damn! For a second I thought of how hot it would be to take all three back home. I was thinking pig and instead got wolf.
-
I don't think it would be a problem but I hope someone who knows for sure will reply. The one thing I would stress is consistency throughout. I think everything I've written is in the past tense with splashes of the present in dialogue.

I'm still finding them in some of my older stories. I think they procreate behind our backs! -
