Site Administrator Graeme Posted June 12, 2011 Author Site Administrator Share Posted June 12, 2011 This was a fun story I know up-market stores can give their employees some unusual perks, but I think this one is one of the best perks I've heard about Well done, comicfan! Link to comment
comicfan Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Hi All, Well while this isn't my first story on the site, it is the first thread I have ever started. Just was curious what you thought of Jonas and his world. I am considering expanding this into a full story. I just wanted to know what you as the reader enjoyed. Thank you for your comments as always. Wayne - Comicfan Link to comment
Sara Alva Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 Just fyi, there's already a thread on this-- Graeme made them for us. I think there's some posts there, too. I'm gonna read as soon as I'm done w/ the darn portfolios Link to comment
Dark Posted June 13, 2011 Share Posted June 13, 2011 In case you're wondering, here's the link to the other thread. Hm, which one to post on, which one? :wacko: Link to comment
phana14 Posted June 17, 2011 Share Posted June 17, 2011 Why not post on all of them? An excellent story, you! Does this mean that the comicfan is into the *dark* world? I hope so! Jonas is in for an experience of his young life if you continue this as a full-blown story! Carry on, I say! (I'm rather excited, as you can probably tell) Thanks for the story, comicfan.

I am glad you enjoyed it. Makes you wonder what you might do if you could order up a fantasy of your own. Link to comment

The world had light and dark to it and nothing I do stays totally in one. For every peak there is a valley. But yes, seriously considering expanding this and considering one of the authors I truly enjoy has offered to beta for me, this is my next project. Thanks for the encouragement. 1 Link to comment
Conner Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 Most definitely a delightful story! Lots of fun there. Wild side? No question about that! I am most curious abut the possibility of a serial. For me, there's reality and there's fantasy. Mixing the two seems awfully challenging. I keep thinking that one will swallow the other. Then again, what do I know. :wacko: Thanks for the story.

Well considering your picture is taken from CS Lewis who blends the real world with Narnia, religious with fantasy, I don't see where it is impossible. Sometimes the fantastical seems that way when placed against the mundane. Besides the every man of Jonas is your way into the story. If you can't enter into the world that has been created then I failed as an author. The idea of expanding this into a serial is my next project. I have less than a month left now on Accident's Happen and then this begins. That is if I don't end up trying to do two at a time. Link to comment
Hazzard Oblivion Posted August 11, 2012 Share Posted August 11, 2012 I loved this as I finished reading it and I definitely can't wait until the full version is finished on here (I've got the link saved and everything as I don't like reading incomplete stuffs). Any idea how long, maybe? I can't wait to hear more about The Strange Life of Jonas Marks if this shorter snippet is anything to go by. I love how the "randomness" is woven into his life and then assimilated. But at the same time, it still remains a sympathetic story that is not too abstract... yeah, I'm a fan. Link to comment

Well I am getting back to Jonas now. Sorry, had some major family difficulties but the story has about five chapters to be written and it is done. Link to comment
