I wrote a story
About 8 months ago I gave myself an assignment. I wanted to write a complete short story. I also gave myself a deadline (early June). But then the story refused to be as short as I wanted it to be and life events forced the setting aside of literary aspirations for a while. But recently I was inspired by Rowyn’s completion of her novel and I wrestled my story to an ending.
There are so many things I wanted this story to say, but the only way I can find out whether it actually speaks to anyone but me is to ask people to read it. So I am now inviting anyone who reads my journal to visit the link below and read my story. Anyone who wants to comment is welcome to do so. I’m actually hoping for some feedback. You can leave it either in the comments section below, or you can email it to Howard via the Schlockmercenary.com site and he’ll forward it to me.
Thanks in advance to anyone who bothers.
