Riveting as always! I swear i feel like I’m living parallel to your story! Glad I read it. It reminded me to reach out to the people I need for my investigation into my own IRL psy thriller. Gotta take action to advance the plot, right? Haha! Yep!

Thank you, Jane! I am, too, but I’ve really chosen to embrace whatever is happening and learn and grow from it. I have chosen to use this harrowing experience to become a better writer. It’s not even vengeance. It’s just that I’m going to have a great life and damn it all if I’ll be stopped.

I met a woman yesterday who was stalked and harassed when a viral piece for Huffington Post upset the bigoted maroons in a community not far from mine who lost their sh*t when after she TRIED to get the school to realize that their LBGQT rhetoric was abusive toward her homosexual son and they ignored her repeatedly.

Like gosh, I can relate. I dated someone JUST like those people, someone who wanted to act wrong toward anyone not like him and then who became increasingly abusive when his piss poor behavior got called out even though nobody named names. It’s what people who make it all about them do. It’s sad but I get it.

Hence why I just keep growing and going. I have no interest in reasoning with the unreasonable.

That's awesome when you use your experiences to power your writing.

Tad in my story are many aspects of men I've heard of or known (thankfully never dated).

Keep going Amy and keep growing

Thanks so much for reading and commenting on my work

Thanks so much, Mitch! It's fun creating characters. They seem to come alive in a way sometimes. If that makes sense
