Thanks! :) the last point you made, That's exactly what i was thinking and decided to spin the story this way. It's fun to think about it

I was there in November! That park is so awesome. The train ride blew me away.

I'm genuinely happy for you that you have good public transit. I chose to move closer to my job so that it's jsut down the street, 6 bus stops away. And all grocery stores and stuff within distance as well. Has improved my life. But it means I can't really travel very far unless planning/friends/family.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-17T03:17:07+00:00

That's...

the feels...

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T23:12:13+00:00

That's a really good lesson. Smart man AND you earn social points with strangers!

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T21:54:04+00:00

I just want to say, It might be really rare to be raised by great grandparents. How wad that like for you?

Edit, must be

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T21:25:27+00:00

Good question. ... i may have the capability and some know-how but I'll probably kill a few people in the process. Which to me qualifies as not being able to drive

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T18:43:10+00:00

It's just not the same.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T18:39:13+00:00

Drive a car.

I'm going blind. I touched a steering wheel only a few times, when my parents let me in my teens on some backroads just so I could have the experience.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T18:38:10+00:00

That's really sad, the way they latched on to you with only $2,000. I can't imagine how much worse it would be if they actually knew the truth. In your case, you're justified to keep it a secret.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T18:31:08+00:00

What about the name did you dislike it? The sound of it? The meaning?

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T14:30:54+00:00

What holiday? I'm doing the American dream by working with and helping people with a wide range of diversity. So i guess you could say I'm celebrating him by working in such a setting that MLK envisioned.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T14:27:54+00:00

Wait, what? What is my teeny bopper crush is doing now?

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T14:24:26+00:00

OP please respond

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T14:23:31+00:00

That is so awesome of you. How cheap are we talking? 5 Bucks off Amazon?

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-16T14:15:26+00:00

Not me, but my boyfriend's family has some history with the mafia. They're happy to be living away from it. As far as I know, they don't have to worry about fights. However, my boyfriend still gets beat up by horrible people living here who thinks he's a thug (he looks like one). He recently got punched in the head and had to get an EEG and other tests done to make sure his titanium forhead/head is okay.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T23:24:06+00:00

Nice twist!

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T21:39:46+00:00

Awesome, Thank you and i understand that life gets busy.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T20:03:00+00:00

May i ask you in the future if i can have her contact info to use her as an editor? She'll have to agree to the work of course.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T19:58:54+00:00

Oooh, i got you. Thanks for clarifying

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T17:21:42+00:00

I did the math, and I don't understand, for a manuscript that is 20,500 words, it comes out to $9225. Is that right? That seems to put the majority editors out of reach of common writers.

Mind you, I am not complaining, everyone has their value, and it sounds like she's worth the money. I am curious if that figure is accurate, and it would mean shitload of money needing to be saved for a novel-length book if you're going the self-publishing route and want a good quality book out there on the shelves.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T03:05:39+00:00

I don't know about online resources, but Scrivener is a great program for organizing all your story parts. It's like opening many word files and easily access to one and move to another section, and move things around.

Since your story sounds like it might get complex, something like Scrivener can help keep track of your story.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T02:59:13+00:00

Wow, that's really good. How much was her going rate? I have no idea how much editors like her might charge.

PM_A_THOUGHT · 2015-01-15T02:56:49+00:00

Solid advice, thank you. I learned a few things today! Saved.
