There is, in other words, such a thing in this world as narrative construction. But evidently not in this particular corner of Boarding Area.
Who ever heard of starting a story and then not finishing it?
I'm late to the game on this, but I like searching occasionally in case there's any feedback about my posts.
I've been trying to "make old posts more relevant" by linking them to things that have recently happened, but it's clear from this thread that doing that is just confusing. So if I mention a story, I'll make it clear I'm referencing something I already wrote, or just write out the whole story to begin with.
I also need to spend more time on my headlines (and getting rid of my Bronx-ese) grammar! So it's good to see an example of where I totally fell flat.
Thanks for being honest about what you think of certain posts. It (hopefully!) helps me to become a better blogger.
