The First Questions Every Story Needs to Answer
Gary L commented on Myr's blog entry in Writing World
There’s gold in these articles… thank you @Myr -
Ummmm, I fear a lawyer’s one-sided position. They are all at fault, as is Harvard for not giving them enough work to stop being a collection of drama queens. Sorry, I just hate this type of so-called sport…. Frankly, where is Jeremy to add a bit of masculinity?

These guys need some kind of reality check. I felt like screaming, ‘it’s just a game’, at them. Hard to like any of them, frankly. V clever writing, Mark.

Or Gazz 😱😱😱

Thank you. Paco and I watched ‘Nuremberg’ the other night. It captured something of the horror, but there was a BBC film of the infamous meeting outside Berlin where the administrators did their worst- all the time checking that it was legal! No torture, no bodies or camps, just the sheer awfulness of servants of the state obeying instructions. Must find it again.

Chapter 5 Heroes or traitors? Friday, January 4th, 1974

Wow! Thank you so much @Summerabbacat! As I was writing I knew you would fall in love with her! -
‘Mother’ paid the price for being nosey! Hopefully, she will have learned her lesson. The writing is so clear that I felt like a fly on the wall in Neil’s room as he drew. The pacing of this story has been excellent.

Chapter 5 Heroes or traitors? Friday, January 4th, 1974
Gary L posted new chapter in Love in a time of hatred vol 2
I had woken up late on Friday. It was past noon, but I still felt exhausted and somehow tainted by the night’s experiences. In the bathroom I could see bruising appearing on the side of my face where that officer had bashed me. I shaved and showered and decided I needed a nice, peaceful day. Of course, that wasn’t going to be possible. I glanced at the calendar on the kitchen wall, and it dawned on me that tomorrow would be the 5th, when most families celebrated the arrival of the Three Kings an -
she was spot on!

Part 15: The Rehearsal Dinner
Gary L commented on StoriesByTroy's story chapter in Part 15: The Rehearsal Dinner
I loath weddings but I wouldn’t have minded being an observer at this one! 🥵 -
40,000 words of excellence. The storyline is really good, the language flawless, and our two heroes and their supporting characters are very well rounded and realistic. Strongly recommended, and kudos to the author ✍️

Chapter 4 Trouble in Paradise: 2nd- 4th January 1974
Gary L posted new chapter in Love in a time of hatred vol 2
Next morning I had to drag myself out of bed; if I had slept it wasn’t a refreshing sleep, rather an interlude between hours of tossing and turning. When I wasn’t thinking of what had happened with my mother, I was worrying about how Gerardo would be coping with his boss’s new project, whatever that was. Deciding that I was going to ignore my mother and her issues at this stage, or at least until I had heard from my father, and that I would have to wait for Gerardo’s next call for his news, -
So far so good! Cooked ‘arroz al horno’ on Sunday. A rice dish baked in the oven with different pork cuts and black pudding, topped with potatoes and tomato. Quite filling! Rice and potatoes together sounds awful, I know, but it’s the ultimate comfort food. only 30 pages of instructions left to read 😱

Hear, hear!!!!

Miele is the reason behind German dominance, along with Siemens. We changed our washing machine after 20+ yrs, dishwasher still going strong after 23 yrs. Why can’t other countries is Europe get the message? Especially Spain and UK

Me too!

The new oven finally arrived on Sat - a month after paying for it. 40-page instructions 😱😱😱😱😱😱

I never heard this term in my decades of schooling and university…. Now, ‘joined up writing’ is another thing!

Fascinating chp. Sadly, the coastal region of La Manga is now a concrete mess. The regional government invested heavily in construction. One mayor drove around in a Rolls Royce, a ‘gift’ from a construction company….. great chp, of course, and forgive my memories…..

36° - Im melting 🫠 Am in such a good mood. An author whom I respect a lot has posted really positive feedback on my latest tale. I tell you, Canadians are THE BEST ❤️

I just hope the drunken idiots behave themselves. Interestingly, in rugby there is no separating the rival fans. People chat and laugh with other nationals. I went once to England v USA and the banter was fantastic. just started anthology piece; the creative juices seem to be flowing in a v sad direction…
