vwl Posted July 9, 2016 Report Share Posted July 9, 2016 I hate to toot my own horn, but I confess that in rereading Chapter 3 of Jake's Side in preparing it for Take 2 -- a decade after I wrote it -- that I was really pleased with the intensity of the writing, The chapter will appear on July 9.

Cole Parker Posted July 31, 2016 Report Share Posted July 31, 2016 Chapter 6 has been posted. It so much fun to see the skill involved in telling a story twice and making it just as fresh the second time it's told, and this time by a different person. Not only is it fresh, it's compelling. Great writing. C Quote Link to comment
bi_janus Posted August 2, 2016 Report Share Posted August 2, 2016 I've been bouncing back and forth among the original version, take 2, and Jake's Hand. What a great, instructive ride! Quote Link to comment
Cole Parker Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 The final chapter is up. Anyone waiting for it to finish before beginning, now is the time. A very good read indeed. C Quote Link to comment
bi_janus Posted September 4, 2016 Report Share Posted September 4, 2016 A warm reminder that we all need a little help from our friends and lovers--excellent writing of a compelling story. Quote Link to comment
vwl Posted September 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Thanks, everybody, for the kind comments. What is wonderful about writing fiction is to take a true hand incident (but time and place changed) and weave two tales that intersect at the end. In writing, I really enjoyed using two points of view in two interrelated tales. Quote Link to comment
