I think I'm going to try my own version. I have so many projects that need finishing, this seems like a perfect opportunity to do so. So instead of writing a complete novel in November, my challenge to myself is to write every day. I'd like to write my Fairy Tale story for the Special Anthology and possibly another story for it, finish a special holiday project, and write at least one chapter of "The Hollow Hills". Today I wrote a short story and started my Fairy Tale antho story, so I'm off to a good start.

Planck and Photosynthesis
Valkyrie commented on Parker Owens's story chapter in Planck and Photosynthesis
Well done, as always. I loved the last verse of the first poem. -
Your short stories always have me salivating for more... I'm sure they will meet again. It seems that the connection the Owl established meant more than just healing his injuries. I would guess that they wouldn't be able to meet until the next All Hallow's Eve, but I suppose that depends on how deep their connection runs. Maybe the Owl will find a way to make their meetings longer and more permanent. It would be interesting to have this story from Brennan's perspective. I really enjoyed this. A perfect little tale for Halloween.

I've had my first and most likely only trick or treaters of the night. I may get one or two more, if it's a busy night. lol Hope everyone's having a good time!

It's a huge undertaking, that's for sure. I have an idea that's been sitting around for a while now, so this may be the push I need to get it done.

Is anyone going to tackle NaNoWriMo this year? I'm considering it, since I have a student intern till mid December, so I'll have time during the day to work on it. Any suggestions from those who have participated in the past?

This was a very sweet story. Makes me want to visit that house on Halloween! I wasn't surprised it was Adrian in the Boba Fett costume. I'm glad that he and Ricky have hit it off so well. I look forward to your Christmas story. Happy Halloween!

I loved it! Ben got exactly what he deserved. I wonder if there will be anything left once the leeches finish with him?

Sometimes it's good to unplug. I hope you enjoy your time off.

Proof that it's possible to overcome extreme adversity. I had to watch a video about Willowbrook during my orientation for my current job. I cried during the whole thing. Seeing how one of its former residents has flourished is very heartening. http://www.lohud.com/story/entertainment/arts/2016/10/19/rockland-artist-willowbrook-painter-stars/91549716/

I'm so sorry for your losses, Parker. These are all very poignant and heartfelt and written with your usual finesse. The last one brought me to tears. "they don't make friends, or fathers, or raincoats like this anymore..." No...they don't.
-
Thanks so much! I'm glad you liked it.

I have a sequel in mind. I need to finish up a few things before I even think about working on it, though. Thanks for the review and your beta help.

*shudder* Our predator is one sick fuck. It's hard to feel sorry for him, knowing his 'business practices'. And what does it say about the stranger at the end who comments about how sick the situation is, but rapes him anyway. I know we're still at the beginning of this story... I can't even imagine where you are going to take us.

You have me wondering if Ted and the redhead were in on this together all along. From the roommate's reaction,it seems that he's aware of the predator's predilections... which makes me wonder if he realizes that he's been the victim too and orchestrated the revenge? Like other reviewers, I also noticed that Ted was the only named character. This story is a bit hard to stomach at times, but I have a strong constitution and will weather the storm. Onward...

I loved them all, especially the one about the woodpecker. I also like the ominous last words... "don't get too comfy". Indeed since the north country has already experienced the dreaded S word. Nice job, Parker.

I Should Be Sleeping. Instead, I'm Planning My Future
Valkyrie commented on Hunter Thomson's blog entry in Hunter Thomson's Blog
It's hard work, but worth it. I went back for my Master's degree ten years after I graduated with my Bachelor's and it was one of the best decisions I ever made. Good luck!- 3 comments

I love that the last two lines inspired the poem. The ending of my story "Alex's Legacy" was what prompted me to write the entire story, so I can relate. It's well-done as always. Very evocative. The blue jay really stood out to me as well.

Another great story, CM! I enjoyed this a lot. Great ending. I loved it when Row finally showed his relationship with Liam to Lady DeLyle.
