the spoken wheel
2000 words. Shooting for 6100, the same length as the last one. I think I have introduced everyone properly, and I wrote a rough outline, which I like, but I don't know how Wil is going to do what he said he's going to do, which is fucking obnoxious, but that's the THRILL of writing stories, eh?
The sucky thing about short stories is the need to limit characters. I am so not good at that. Er, and by characters I mean personages. I don't mean the actual letters themselves...that would just be silly.
Mardis Gras this weekend...Superbowl Sunday...the mega birthday party of doom (not my own). Argh. I'm going to have to steal another two hours from somewhere.
- your passing broke the silence
on that dark October day
the sun was headin' for the west
as it did, I heard you say,
"I set my sail for a gentle breeze,
Now I leave this world as it was meant to be.
And you, did you listen?
To anything I said?
Did you ever listen to me?"
