Title
Can we talk about Sam?
Plot:
So my dad was quite the character. He had an assortment of people around him. But my favorite was a man named Sam. That man was quite the muse to me. They committed suicide.

My dad doesn’t wanna talk about it.
Because my dad was taught that to seek help means you’re weak.

If I can get him to talk about Sam.

Then maybe I can get him to be a father.

Do you think that would be a good book?

If you think suicide is wrong wait till you see the reviews on natural causes.

As a successful writer, I get the following comments regularly:

“Oh! You’re a writer? What’s the biggest book you’ve published?”

Me: Hmm, probably around 4500 pages.

“Wow! Anything I’ve read?”

Me: Unless you’re a helicopter pilot, probably not.

“Oh… :frown:

My struggle is that, apparently, only fiction writers are cool.

I respect any published author.
I happen to write fiction.
We can still be friends right?:wink:

Absolutely!  I’m actually on this site for a reason. I’d love to get into fiction writing, but I never have original or clever ideas. I’ll write a few chapters and realize that I’m simply outlining a book that I read years ago.

Maybe psychedelics will help. If it’s good enough for Lewis Carroll, it’s good enough for me.

I think the best place to start is with the description you put on the dust jacket.

I'm wandering thru the library aisles while my phone charges not finding anything that catches my attention.

Do you have a paragraph you can spare, something unpublished or spur of the moment that may give me the fix I need?
