The metal will likely rust away first. Not bad preps at all for just a few years. I'll think on the fiction. I'd have to redo most of it. The idea started out sound but I think I mostly butchered the presentation. That was one of those "writing two times a day" that helped kick my ass. 1500 is a large word count for one finger hunt and peck with a twelve hour day job on top.James M Dakinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01382139289994087931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-31859162343733995192014-10-06T12:40:53.806-07:002014-10-06T12:40:53.806-07:00love yor writing

Can understand feeling like " why bother " now and then . This can happen when you're not getting feed back about your efforts . <br /> This is only the third time I've commented here and I've been reading your blog for near 2 years on an almost daily basis . Just not much a a comment maker <br /> Not sure how / if you can track and differentiate those that visit your blog , so this is just let you know your efforts are appreciated . I enjoy your style and approach to this collapse thing and you've given useful information and your unmuddled thought process has helped with my own thoughts concerning what is happening in this world today .<br /> Take what ever break you need , write as little or as much as you care to . If you're still writing , I'll be reading .
