Thanks, Kitt. When I was looking for an idea for Fight Back, this one immediately came to mind. So, it got expanded. 🙂 I'm slowly going back and redoing my older stories. Not sure about the prompts, but I may end up doing it.

I'm heading out as well for the night. Week three starts later today. This song has been on my mind for a couple of days... No, it doesn't mean anything, just been on my mind. (In the show the guy singing is God,)

All stories I review here on GA, Amazon, Good Reads, and Dreamspinner Press, automatically start out with 5-stars. I take stars away for different reasons, but mainly if the story is just piss-poor in my opinion. And that is the crux of the issue. It's a subjective opinion. What I consider a fantastic story, Joe Blow might feel its trash. In my humble opinion, and it's one I've said before with a similar topic, because it's subjective and no two of us is going to agree on what's a good story, just leave it alone.

There's more to the story. LOL. A lot more. -
Thanks, Mac!

I hope the headache gets better, and enjoy the outing.

Home alone, and quiet house. About to go study. Took a practice test last night and didn't do so hot on it. I hope everyone is having a good day.

Now I need to find the DragonLance books on eBook!

The two "T"s both died in that book. The first was Tanis, and that one made me walk away. The second one was Tass. I chucked the book so hard I left a bent in the drywall.

Thank you very much, Mancunian, for reading and for the comment. Abuse by a partner is all too common.

Thank you very much, Thorn, for reading and for the comment. I mentioned earlier, that I feel everyone can use a Greg in their lives. I still stand by that.

To add to this topic, and using the DragonLance saga. In the Dragons of Summer Flame book---which TSR/WotC used to RetCon the saga in a new direction---there were two deaths of fan beloved characters. The first one made me put down the book, and walk away from it for about a month before I picked it back up. The second one, I literally threw the book across the room. I eventually finished the book, but after that scene, I stopped buying the books and got rid of my collection of all TSR/WotC Dungeons and Dragons novels. Which was around 75 - 80 books at the time.

Readers, why do you read a story but not Comment?
Brayon replied to Former Member's topic in The Lounge
Time for me to add something besides my "ditto" above. There are some stories I've read where I gave out pity comments and reactions. While the story is so absolutely horrible, I'll toss something in the comments, or just click the thumbs-up button just to show I've read it. I was taught praise in public, criticize in private, and that's what I do. In public, some of my comments are all Sunshine and Unicorn-Glitter-Farts; however, in private I can get brutally honest with my opinion if I was asked to give it. More than once I've had authors here stop talking to me because they asked for honest feedback and I gave it to them. -
After Caturday Night, it's Catbox Sunday...

Morning everyone. Need coffee.

Home Alone, in a nice quiet house... I do believe I am going to take a piping hot bath, chill out, and finish some school stuff while drinking a warm beverage of some kind. Tea, Decaf Coffee, and Hot Chocolate are the options. Also, this morning, got the notice that the second disbursement has been applied this morning, and within the next few days the remaining overage will be deposited into my account. Which is good. I can use it right now. Need some stuff.
-
LOL. I use it all the time. It's something we use down here.

What tim said. I had thought about responding to that one, but all my other learning teammates did that one. I'm going the one about liquid and fixed assets.

The Gasparilla Parade is on TV and the Budweiser Clydesdales just went by. It's being livestreamed on a couple of local news station's websites. So, if you look for WFLA NBC Channel 8, you might be able to catch it.
-
Yeah, I should. LOL With as many times as I read the chapters while Beta Reading them for you. Even then, you've made a few changes before posting.

Pretty much everything I would have said, has been said, so I will just say: Ditto... -

I'll be around. Gotta charge the headphones, so I can finish school stuff. Plus my head is not in the right place. I'll see y'all later.

This week has been a struggle. Wine and almost daily trips to the fitness center have helped.
