Another cool entry. Got some good stuff in here. Although, this snippet makes me think your editing got the best of you: “bucking wildly against the winds barely 10 meters Ismail’s unfortunate exit strategy.” Feels like two sentences squished together, with a few words being lost in the collision.
Same thought here, John. I had to read that “bucking” sentence a couple times and it still doesn’t register right. Might need a little attention there, Jon.
Otherwise, another good entry, but how long does Benny have in 3503 before lady cop leads the charge?
Yeah, I’ve been hitting the wonderful ole “writer’s block” wall on this lately, and I’ve been busy with a couple other things. Important things…like beer and 20 year old video-games in copious amounts. I’ll have a look at the sentence…who knows what I was trying to say with it? I don’t…
I’ve always been an avid (dare I say: OBSESSED) reader, and started writing fiction somewhere around 5th or 6th grade. I read approximately 3 or 4 books a month, so new material is always a must!
I’ve written for a long time now, although the novel I started in high school has never gotten past the first draft stage. Over the last four years, I’ve fallen out of the habit of writing and I’m looking to ramp that up again.
I’m going to insert a shameless plug for my father. Jim Laughter and Victor J. Bretthauer recently published Escape to Destiny, and his book (and oncoming series) is available on tatepublishing.com!
Music You Should Try: The Dears, No Cities Left Sia, lots of albums…great voice.
