RE: Lois: A Story Written for the Ink Well Fiction Writing Challenge #2 - Bad Habits
Thank you, @carolkean. Yes, she is trapped. Hard to blame her, even, because her lack of insight is paralyzing. Hurts her, hurts the students, hurts Sam.
Thank you for assessing my writing skills positively. You know craft, so that means a lot. In writing, I look not only to cut extraneous material, but also to keep the trajectory logical.
Glad you think I achieved those goals (at least I'm guessing you did).
Looking forward to seeing more great writing in the Ink Well.
Yes, you achieved your goals, and yes, your writing is succinct, economical, but powerful and compelling!
After all the hurting you've depicted so well, I'm ready to see the start of some healing. Maybe in a future story. ::)
Right now I'm listening to soothing jazz and watching comedies (in the background). Have to be positive with all that is going on.
An upbeat story is always welcome :)
Comedies, cat videos on you tube, jazz, happy music, all my usual go-to's, and all week long, cat CRAFTS, omg, I've been painting craft stuff. Gaaaahh!! It'd be relaxing, like sewing would be if I ever got stuff right the first time. The eyes are too close together. Just can't fix it this late in the game.
I love that cat! When I paint, all I can do impressionist landscapes and abstracts. Can't realistically represent anything.
Wonderful you can to that
You are waaay too kind!
Thank you so much!
I can't do landscapes, and I have now obliterated poor Marcel and will start over again tomorrow trying to make his eyes look like the eyes of a cat with high anxiety.
Ha Ha Ha
Laughing out loud.
