I buckled down and ended up with one of the most bizarre segments that will be in my murder stories. Pre-edit, it is roughly 960 words. The male character in question has a deep psychopathy issue where he feels no sympathy or sense of wrongdoing. I worked with a few men like this in the psych ward... Sign in to see full entry.

It's been one of those rare times in my life where my mind is revving off the chart, but my fingers aren't responding. To say that is frustrating is being overly polite. To compensate, I am doing some more editing on a story I have been working on for at least three years, hoping that the magic... Sign in to see full entry.

Lisa has ducked out of the bedroom to use the bathroom for a minute, so I thought I would jump on here. First, while I didn't get any new words in my story, I have settled it in my head. Second, I had forgotten how much I loved my wife, and until she was gone for a few days, I had become comfortable... Sign in to see full entry.
It's been a few mornings since I have slept in as late as I did this morning. When Lisa finally woke me up, I was shocked to see it was 10:40. Stress will do that to ya. She brought me a breakfast of scrambled eggs, toast, and bacon. I think I needed the breakfast as much as I needed the sleep. It... Sign in to see full entry.

There's No Place Like Home
Lisa is home, and for the first time in three days, I feel complete again. Yes, this is Verwayne writing 'sappy' stuff like that. She was gone for three days that felt more like thirty years, and I was lost the entire time. I didn't add a single new word to my murder story. I barely posted anything... Sign in to see full entry.

Just a quick note to tell you we are home. We have a lot to talk about and just be together. Thank you for your thoughts and prayers. L&V Sign in to see full entry.
Whew. It was a long night with a short nap. I will head to Tallahassee at about 6 PM & tonight to pick up my wife. Of course, the dogs will ride along. I suspect that I won't get a chance to talk most of the way home, but that's a good thing. Talking allows Lisa to emotionally 'unpack' her thoughts... Sign in to see full entry.
It's crazy, but I have been up most of the night talking with Lisa. She is a very intelligent woman, but she is unknown waters for her. She was really shook up for a few days, but now she is coming to terms with her loss. I'm going to go to bed and rest. I'll attempt to get back to normal when I... Sign in to see full entry.

Thank you, everyone. Lisa is beginning to rebound. It's taken some time, but she realizes that life takes everyone down a different path. I think she will be leaving Lansing in the late afternoon, arriving in Tallahassee at about 8 PM. I'm sure we will have a lot to talk about. Thank you again for... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm sorry that I haven't been here much today. I've spent a lot of time talking with my wife. I don't think it's the death of her Aunt Helen that is causing Lisa problems. I think it's the fact that she has realized what the time she spent or misspent in her youth may have cost her in time spent... Sign in to see full entry.
