===================
Hi, guys. I know I've been quiet lately. RL circumstances and all that
has rendered me a little busy, ATM.
I did bash out a little story called 'Pillowtalk' over at SOL recently.
It went down okay, I guess, but I didn't recieve as much feedback as I'm
used to. Puzzling over this anomaly, a reader did give me a hint.
Simply, it didn't end all 'happily ever after.' My main character looked
set to make a chump of himself at the end, although I deliberately left
it hanging. It seems folks want satisfying conclusions, with villians
getting their come-up-ence and the hero getting the girl.
Okay, I wanted a story with more a real life conclusion. But perhaps
I've erred? Maybe folks really want pure escapism. Maybe they don't want
to be reminded that sometimes life sucks? Perhaps they don't want to
read about nice guys making fools of themselves?
A reader asked for a sequel where all things would be repaired and just
desserts dished out in full measure. I've jotted down a few ideas but,
frankly, I'm uneasy about it. I'm not really sure there's much of a
story left, but I'll kick it around some more and see what I can come up
with.
Note to cmsix; wtf is this Vick guy of the fighting cocks? Sounds like
the French rugby team?
