#writingcommunity I've added a framing device to my novel. I changed the narrator from the Unreliable MC, to an equally Unreliable Narrator who is transcribing everything the MC tells him. It's like Heart of Darkness now.

The opening scene no longer takes place in a bathroom.

🚨ALARM

DOGE and the Social Security Administrator are quietly CLOSING SS offices making it much harder for people to maintain their benefits.

Please help spread the word.
THIS IS INSANE:

A thread 🧵👇

Yesterday, the acting commissioner of the Social Secrity Administration, Lelnd Dudek, notified Rep. George Latmier that he rejected his and Rep. Lawler's bipartisan effort to keep the only Social Security hearing office in the Hudson Valley open.

"While he tried to be a good man, he'd always cross the proverbial line in the sand, which for him was on a beach. The tide would come in at last call, and wash it away. He'd go back the next day, redraw the line, but put it further out - closer to the ocean"

This is the narrator describing the MC..."He was like a ninja. He must have read Sun Tzu." And yes, I know there are differences in cultures, etc. How would the audience take this? Unreliable narrator (which it's supposed to be), ignorance of the author, or just not knowing?

Finished a short story for #millpages magazine. Draft #5. It got better and better the more I re-wrote it. Like Edward D Wood Jr said, (in the Time Burton film anyway) "the more you redo it the better it gets. He was referring to Plan 9 from Outer Space, my story is better. #writingcommunity

Three short stories (under 5k words) all at once. It's working better than I thought. When stuck, I do something else.
the magazine I am trying to get into: MillPages - it's a local literature and art 'zine.
Hearsay and Heresy
Beyond Stupidity - Bromantic comedy
lovers, Ghosts, reunions, splits

Don't make this mistake. Not too many people will notice this, but the few who do will put your book down. "Till" is a cash register or a farming machine.

'til is short for "until'

Here's some of my Xmas gifts... Over the years I've been making gifts. Something special. The Twisted Sister rock was great. My kiddo got into them with the song, I wanna rock, so Santa got her one. I out it on Instagram and See Snider follows me now.

A few weeks ago, I started a fleshed out draft of what was meant to be a short story, but exploded into something much larger. But I know exactly what it should be.
I've gone back time and time again, but I'm kinda tired of it. It's like a movie that you've seen too many times.

Created a rough proof of what I am going to use for my novella.

The smoke stack is a 44 magnum, and every thing else is derelict. It'll make more sense when you read it

Confession: I'm skirting the line between real and AI. That was only used as a reference point

I'm starting to feel like I've got "anomia,' forgetting the names of people and using the wrong words for common words. I called my med prescriber, she said I've been on these meds for so long that anomia, would have shown up earlier. And that I should go to my PCP to check for early onset dementia

Ahhh, the end of the year is coming. Almost time for our annual company meeting. You know the one... The boss says, next years insurance is going to cost a little bit more, and cover a little bit less. And then an asshole like me says, "Eventually, it'll cost our entire paycheck, but cover nothing

The 5 Original Planet of the Apes movies, recreated as paintings. A lot of the ideas for the paintings were lifted from some other popular art.

War for the Planet of the Apes. The third in a trilogy that got better reviews and made more money as the story progressed.

The issue I take with the film is the name/genre. Many war movies have "war" in the title, but this film was a Western, not a War Picture

And here's some interpretation art

Sadly, my #cat had to be put down the day before Thanksgiving. He was 13 and had a tumor in his throat that was inoperable.

His name was Dakota and we found him at a shelter in Brockton, MA. He did, however have a chip, it said he was from #LasVegas. How he got to Brockton is a #mystery
