@RStamfordAuthor It makes life a little better knowing the truth but like me, learning to adapt writing a whole book ms is daunting instead of writing 6-9 page short stories, flash fiction, and micro. Still dont know how to finish longer works even though the story, arc path/characters are formed
@SOOPLLC From a framed print in a thrift store of two victorian children aged 9, a boy holding a wooden boat, a girl cradles a doll with porcelin arms. I ask "What if ?" both lost their favorite toy? What if they were propped up dead? The title: Lost & Found of The Traveling Dead
@SOOPLLC I know where I want to be at the end. The how & specifics of the process getting there is dependent on my craft; the use of certain words to provide emotion for the reader. Like fine wine, time is needed to provide a bouquet that is essential for the reader to sip, savor & enjoy.
@Robert_Robbins@HeatherCashman Sounds like what Paul Newman's character in the movie "Cool Hand Luke" had to do to please 2 different bosses. "I want you to dig a hole." Later, "Who dug a hole & put all the dirt here making a mess, put it back in the hole." Later, " Who put dirt in my hole, get that dirt out."
@HappySparkles18@news10nbc Rgh's bleeding $, no influction of $ to keep safety as a priority. Strong has U of R, research $ & large endowments to funnel $ expanding. RGH sold the 200+ bed Hill Haven & didnt replace the beds in their system & wondered why the ER/floors have NH pts waiting taking up beds.
@news10nbc@sfj8888 I guess the hospital's walk through scanner system at the 4 entrances weren't on at the time when he walked in. Maybe they dont have the security staff to man them 24/7. Or the range of object detected is too large so it doesnt react to small items like pocket swiss army knives.
