'Lo, everyone. Javer here.
In place of an update today, I'm going to keep the hounds at bay for a little while by posting a little something that I wrote to start off the next chapter in an original way. Read it over, and give me any suggestions you may have, please. Okay? I wasn't sure if I should use it or not, because personally I thought it was too nice to ruin by tossing a man-eating clown in there.
Oh, and before I forget . . .
To my latest reviewer: I didn't catch your screen name in the notification email, so I'll just address you here, okay? Yes, I have seen the movie. And I tell you, I can do the best damn Pennywise imitation you have ever seen. Tim Curry was an excellent pick. And yes, I believe Pennywise's comments about floating is referring to the bodies of those he has slain floating in the waters of the sewer. A further clue to this is "we all float down here" with emphasis on "down here". Bingo, sewer. But how do their bodies float if he eats them all? Hmm . . . you may be correct. Maybe there is a different meaning. I have no idea ^_^
(There is a field where the once-nows rest. A long, green field adorned by a veritable forest of crisp new grass, lightly swept westward by the cool breeze.
It always goes west, that playful spring wind, like those tobacco-chewing gun-toting colonists that the children read about in school turned their eyes towards. West is the direction that the river of time flows, some aged, wizened, American-to-the-core veterans say, and for this reason they have named that friendly, puppy-dog puff of air the Se'ler Wind.
This is the field where stars that have faded live out their retirement in a cloudy dream; this is where the has-beens of yesterday find solace. This is where your father's father's father's fathers rest, and you shall rest there too. All you must do . . . is keep strong.
This is the field where the once-nows rest, and there they sleep forever.)
Opinions, everyone! Opinions! You don't even have to leave a review if you don't want to; I welcome emails and IM's whenever I'm on. Please, feel free!
