The Art of Conflict
I mentioned my story last Thursday, so I guess this Thursday is as good as any for an update.
I’ve worked out more of the story. I even found a way to work in some elements that were previously only mentioned in dialogue. Now, the main character I’ve decided on will have a larger role in some of the background story, which will pull it all together nicely. Just have to work out a few things yet, but at least there is progress.
Also, for those following, the Swine Flu map has been updated once again this evening. (Thanks to Michelle for a tip!) Feel free to bookmark it.
By the way, how often do you see siblings (same parents, no remarriages or anything) that are 25 years apart? Like the mother had the first child at 20 and had another child (perhaps unexpectedly) at 45. I’m pretty sure I’ve heard of examples such as that, but does any one know of any for sure?
Okay. That’s all for today. I’m actually pretty tired right now.
25 years apart is a good long time, but it happens.
My wife’s older sister is 62. Her younger sister is 42. That’s 20 years which isn’t quite as long as your example. No big deal, until you start counting and see that there are 10 siblings, counting my wife, between the youngest and the oldest.
One of my sons-in-law is the baby of his family. One of his brothers is a little older than me and Ric is 21 years younger than me.
It is getting scary down here, the poor baby that died is only four hours away in Houston. The schools are closing up left and right. Fort Worth has closed all there schools and some of the Dumb Ass mothers are still allowing their children to hang out together in large groups. Kids are going to baseball games rather than staying at home and studying….
It is out of control, chaos to ensue shortly….
My brother is 89
Hey DCR … R U sleepin?? I cannot find the map!
hooray for writing progress!
