Gun to your head, do you read Jane Austen, or 50 shades?

I look forward to what you’ll show us in 2023, Chuck. This has, so far, been an incredible adventure. Thank you so much, and I can’t wait for what’s to come.

You gave a perfect description of rewriting. It's not the words I need to find, it's the patience.

If I don’t have a complete collection of short stories come a year from now, I give you permission to mail me a box loaded with a spring-powered boxing glove. Or just a straight up bomb. Dealer’s choice.

Please don't say reopening in 2024 when it's 2022 and I've just begun to get started.

You don't want me to shut up now,

And Thanks for giving Sharkfiddy the bookmark. That kids been a collector of everything celebrity since I met him. He told me he will cherish it forever and if there's anyone I've met with undiscovered talent it's him!

For what it's worth, I didn't think it dragged! Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Very keen to read the new version, but would definitely like a copy of the original at some point, if the publishers could be persuaded.

Happy New Year everyone.

I think I have a solution to taxes. You just need to find away to get everyone in the country to refuse to pay them. What’s the government/IRS gonna do? The entire country’s population outnumbers them to quite a large ratio, to say the least. And the people they send to come collect the tax, not only are they also vastly outnumbered, but without taxes being payed, they’re not getting a wage, so they’ll soon phase out.

Checkmate, government/IRS. No longer able to take a slice out of everybody’s income? Feel free to cry about it.

Enjoyed reading it. Is it ok to ask a question about the plot or will that be inappropriate to your process?

What a difference a year makes. Thanks for helping me improve my writing. Thanks for creating a place where I can connect with people who like the same stuff as me. Thanks for letting me read Greener Pastures in its current state. Happy last day of 2022.
