Adam Burbey commented on Slacker's group Writers"I think prime characters being killed is great. Especially if you flesh out tertiary characters, then the death has impact emotionally, an allows a side character to replace if desired."
Adam Burbey commented on Slacker's group Writers"Thanks Peyton. Great advice.UVB appreciated.
As for writers voice, I prefer omnipresent 3rd person. Essentially telling a tale.
However 1st person present works great for mystery murder."

Marty said… - Don't forget the guy offering the compliment is carrying old man flab where muscle should be. I do verrry careful exercise wearing a kidney belt so as not to throw my lumbar spine into spasm but that does not get rid of my pot. I'm not fat (weight is 170) but even if I eat a lettuce sandwich without the bread the fat all deposits in one place. To me, your abs are perfect. Don't get old!!!

- You are a role model for 6 pack abs. Wish I could ever look as good. Keep up your good efforts. It certainly shows.
