    Dialog Variety

    I enjoy reading and writing stories where the characters have distinct ways of speaking. It's something that I need to pay more attention to on my own writing. It's often difficult because, at least for me, I write what the characters tell me to write, and because they're in my head, they often speak like I do. I do try to switch it up. I currently have a story where a minor character speaks rather formally. Proper sentence structure, no contractions. My biggest problem is trying to teach the damn autocorrect that slang and regional dialects exists. If I drop a 'g' it always tries to add it back 🙄 Tanks fer sharin wif us!

    I really should not have read this while at work. It brought me to tears. They were tears of happiness though. To find someone who you can feel so strongly about is a true gift. Treasure your husband and your relationship. It's beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

    Stinky Nature

    Thanks for that visual Wayne. I needed it. I had the worst shitter of a day that I've had in a long time. I don't even want to be in my own company too much longer. Time for me to go shower off my own stink as I just got home from the gym.

    Loren's Recovery

    I have the original draft. There's no mention of Oliver Twist. Lying will get you a one way ticket to H-E-Double toothpicks! But thankfully you're still on the righteous path of redemption. Which is a damn good thing because you already know I'm in charge of driving the express train to see my buddy Lucifer!🤣🤣

    You know me so well! Of course I'll take credit for it.

    Loren's Recovery

    So much going on in this chapter, especially on the emotional level for Loe. There's an elephant in the room and they're both ignoring it. Wonder how that's gonna pan out?🤔
  7. A pair of glasses. A deck of cards. The English language is weird.
  8. We saw Morbius tonight (I know, I know...another Marvel-ish movie) anyway...the trailers advertised a series coming to Prime called Outer Range that looks really good. I hardly ever watch TV anymore, but I might give this a try. I think it drops April 15th. It's tagged as a paranormal cult western.

    Prologue

    It's a great genre and I've always been partial to the supernatural world. Stephen King got me hooked when I was 11 or 12. This was my first foray into it as a writer. It was fun. I hope you enjoy and feel free to comment along the way!

    I need the comic relief. My morning started with both my maintenance guys calling off, the manager next door was being a dick to our lawn guy...I had to play mediator, I'm trying to get a catering order ready for pick up tomorrow because my maintenance supervisor's last day is Wed. (The only reason he's leaving is because the manager next door is a dick), then while stopping at our 3rd community to get that manager's donation to the gift card, I roll up onto them calling 911 because our other maintenance guy broke a gas line. Jeezus H. I can't make this shit up! @spyke can testify to dumbfuckery of property management.

    You're the smartest one of the bunch. Work has been killing me today and I haven't had time to do anything but glance at Boss Nanny to find the issue. Now @Mrsgnomie can breathe easy.

    No one would've noticed if you didn't draw attention to it. Open mouth, insert re-write.

    If she didn't have some massive edits to do because she threw the barn door wide open, I'd offer to overnight her some mango habenero whiskey to loosen her literary libations. 🤭🤪

    If, in fact Loe is in need of a nurse, I really can't picture him having any say in the matter. I picture Jay with a spoon for hand feeding in one hand and wet wipes in the other. Every convenience imaginable within his reach, and the ultimate "mom" scowl ready to be wielded at the slightest hint of protest outta Loe. Poor dude.
