Hi FlatDaddy, thanks for the comment. And I will read “Dead Muse”. Perhaps you posted “Dark Alice…..” at WritersCafe’?? I will look there to see and read.

This is a good story. Caught with the help of two paper boys. You had some fun times back then.

Oh, I had a few fun times, Fia. Not everything was “sturm und drang”.Thanks for reading this; I wrote it all in one burst last night after a memory of the event surfaced yesterday afternoon. I’m glad you like it.

Brilliantly penned, Thomas. Into the book it belongs! Excellent write with incredible storytelling and amazing imagery my friend. Dig the jazz references and the mention of Coltrane & Parker along with your use of chess terminology. Nicely done. Appreciate you.

There are so many layers to this. It’s almost a sultry piece of music accompanied by chess…not the other way around. This is definitely a multiple read piece 😊

I’m aware of the phases of pain, Curt, and you seem to be as well, tho I do see some differences in our perceptions of it. You might like my piece, “Dark Alice Comes to Call.” Hmmm, I just checked, and it seems I never uploaded that one. Strange, I’ll have to remedy that. In the meantime, along the same lines is, “Dead Muse.” It’s here somewhere.
