This is good. Why would it be the only story you write ?

Powerfully penned, Tim. I wouldn’t give up on storytelling my friend, this is a really good story. I liked this a lot, If I’m ever in the neighborhood, we’ll take a walk. lol. Appreciate you.

Powerful work. Great storytelling.

Don’t listen to nay sayers Tim
I did that with my art stuff
Listened to the wrong people tell me my stuff wasn’t any good
Then I stopped listening and said to myself
I’m doing this for me
Fuck everyone else

Keep writing stories Tim

BIG LIKE

I enjoyed this. I grew up with trains and hobos, so the subject is something I find very interesting. You say you’ve just started writing short stories and in my book, you’re off to a bang up start. Also, your writing is lean and correct–just the way it should be.

Powerful work. Excellent.

Time this is engaging prose that took me into the scene. You write excellent accounts and I for one am a big fan of your writing here. Truly hauntingly powerful. Starts off like an ordinary day and then full of surprises.

lol. Thank you.

Thanks. In 20 or more years.

I did! Not my typical piece.

You aren’t you on meds. Nobody is. Some have no choice. I get that. But I don’t understand living in the most medicated country on the face of the earth.

I hope you find power in your battle 🌼

No, meds only confused me. Not taking any psych meds right now. I have to have control of my inner demons on my own. This was one of the last I wrote near the beginning of year. Before radiation and surgery. When I was thinking of just ignoring the doctors completely. Which I didn’t. I even broke free of caffeine. Off it completely.

Sometimes all we can do is write about it and let it come out as it will. What you said here was so relatable to what it can feel like when you really want to write it out but are also still dealing with whatever is going on.

Exactly!

Powerfully penned, Paula. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

I agree to try to go without psych meds and using the arts and writing to be therapeutic. Me personally, there’s some I need. Writing will always be my number one therapy too. Keep strong, girl. Your therapeutic writing is paying off, I love it!
