Far from it. I enjoyed writing it, even if it did not go as planned. I was just making some observations about the whole process of writing a fictional tale. No matter what approach I use, the story always seems to find it's own way. Either that or I trash it.<br /><br />David Barber - Hmm. You might be right. But I still don't feel comfortable in any one genre. But thanks for the kind words.<br /><br />sunshine - Thanks. I liked it also. Maybe it is just me, but every story or piece I write, upon re-reading them, I see words I could have used differently or better.<br /><br />Kulkiri - You point up one of my tendencies I am trying to not use every time. So far, most of my stuff leaves too much up to the reader. I wanted this one to have a clear beginning and ending without seeming out of place with the flow of events.<br /><br />Carlita - Mark Twain alluded to the same thing. I guess it is a natural component of this writing gig.MRMacrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01414173517957120477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-25732837201718875552010-01-06T23:17:39.514-05:002010-01-06T23:17:39.514-05:00Add me to the list of people who liked that story....Add me to the list of people who liked that story. Interestingly, I often hear fiction writers (including Roxana Robinson, one of my favorites) say that their characters take on lives of their own and often take the story in very different directions than orginally planned. So you're in good company.Carlitahttp://carlitablog.wordpress.com/wp-admin/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-15719246145938264592010-01-06T12:14:53.030-05:002010-01-06T12:14:53.030-05:00I thought the story was good.

Your story wrapped up neatly with the reader not wanting to see "the rest of the story".Kulkurihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09198195648066700925noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-35081864637779512152010-01-06T11:55:11.855-05:002010-01-06T11:55:11.855-05:00I loved that story too!

So what? <br />Perhaps another time you can revisit that story and write a sequel. <br />Who knows what happened to them all after the little girl came to live with them.......<br /><br />So in closing I'd like to say.."shut up. you're awesome". :D <br />The End.<br /><br />((Hugs))<br />LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09226811839348899360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9728880.post-2195403477736215052010-01-06T11:37:40.201-05:002010-01-06T11:37:40.201-05:00Mike, I thought your story rocked.
