RE: No Snow in South Florida - Walking around Green Cay
Well dang. When @negativer writes a happy sunshine-piece, I expect alligators to come along and eat the ducks, at least. Ah, I get it. The cruelty here is that Neg is basking in sunshine while we're shoveling out.
I've actually been writing a few happy uplifting pieces lately. It helps balance out my darker stories.
Also sometimes my characters don't want to die, and want to do something positive with their lives instead of bleeding out in the last paragraph of a short story. I unchain them sometimes and let them have their freedom and false sense of security.
It's a good thing for everyone.
Neg's characters, unchained! Protesting the usual death penalty - promising to do good things with their lives--if he'll only give them a reprieve. Love it!
This would make a great premise for a graphic novel or comic strip. :) Kinda like that K-drama (actually a Japanese TV show, I think), "W," about a cartoonist whose protagonist refuses to die... and then pulls the cartoonist's daughter into his dimension... I gotta watch this one! Even if you can't stand K-drama (how lame can it get), it's such a fun premise.
