Come on, folks, I know we all write fiction, but let's keep it real.
A bullet passes through a body without throwing it across the room. It may move something like a piece of wood given the physics of mass, energy, and all that releated stuff. But the human body does not have the resistance and weight ratio needed.
Leave that to Hollywood.
I've circled back to Ernest Bywater's "Clan Amir" stories. Maybe I'm just getting old and need to get a life, but I still get chills while rereading them. I'm just starting on 'Dani Girl' and I know it's a tear jerker.
We miss you, Ernest. I'm sure you had more good things to write.
In my humble opinion, SOL is home to some fantastic writers. Every day, we readers are treated to new stories. So far, I have not told you anything you did not already know.
O. K. In addition to the new stories, we have a wealth of older stories that you may have dig for. The category search can be one way to find older stories. A lot of these may be by writers who a no longer with us. For instance, I just reread several great stories by FantasyLover. Ernest Bywater is another great author no longer with us.
Here is wishing you hours of great reading!
For new members, or forgetful long term readers, just a short note.
SOL is fantastic. Every day, we are treated to new material, some complete stories and some chapters of longer stories. By all means, enjoy the new postings.
On the days that nothing new appeals to you, dig into the older posted stories. Both the Catagory and Advanced searches are great tools.
For instance, I just reread two stories posted by FantasyLover several years ago. Both Perchance to Dream and Perchance to Visit are fantastic.
Don't cheat your self out of great experiences by not exploring SOL.
Periodically, I find my self drawn back to the stories by Ernest Bywater, who died in July of 22.
Just to say, we miss you, Ernest.
