Re: Short Story

Wow! Thanks for the edit. You added a lot of what was in my mind. Like the song playing again. I think I was trying to get it down to less words but ended up less detailed as usual in my writing. It was why I struggled in that creative writing class. I have it in my head but can tell it not describe it.


There is some truth to this story. I do feel that way about Hotel California which just started when the car flipped but kept playing after we sat there in the smoking wreckage.

There was a gas station in the old city where I grew up near that was within city limits but not in the developed areas. It was and old mom and pop place and the elderly couple was murdered there one night. They were stabbed multiple times, it was pretty grisly.

I met someone who walked in shortly after it happened and for a bit was questioned as a suspect. I always thought due to the personalized nature of stabbing in a robbery and amount of times stabbed, they would know the perpetrator. They did not know him, it was random. He just went off on them. Every time I would drive by to work, from work I wondered if it was haunted. Thanks again for the help. I know you took a lot of time to do that.
Awesome. The truth is stranger than fiction, eh? hope you weren't offended by any of the liberties I took. I was feeling inspired...LOL

Thanks again for sharing.

I meant to thank this earlier. I did go and look at that site. Have you published there before?

Yes, they published my Curtains story there. I've been meaning to do a couple of film reviews for them - they sent me some screener copies, I just haven't gotten around to it yet.

If you wanted to give me Editing credits that'd be great, but not necessary. Consider it a favor, and discard whatever didn't work for you.

Hope you do it!
