Otherwise, I'm thinking and writing about victims who intentionally or not, break the law and are charged.Margaret S.

And the foreman who gave me such a hard time because he wasn't happy supervising women. And the glass melter operator who was so careless around the melter he almost knocked me into it, but blamed me. And the school principal in Baltimore who told me straight out she was getting rid of all the white teachers. I could keep this going for a while.KM Rockwoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03973749764907859829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-37096917644904434672016-05-14T10:01:43.207-04:002016-05-14T10:01:43.207-04:00Welcome to WWK, Robin.

The first short story I wrote as an adult was "Cheating On Your Wife Can Get You Killed" after my ex of 31 years left me. The characters were totally different from me and my ex, but it worked to satisfy me and won the Love is Murder contest and appeared in Crime Spree magazine. By the way, it wasn't long before I realized his leaving was the best thing to happen to me because I could live a life alone the way I liked it.Gloria Aldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581719606924364447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-31517907844703874642016-05-14T09:32:57.655-04:002016-05-14T09:32:57.655-04:00My first attempt at a novel, which no one else wil...My first attempt at a novel, which no one else will ever read, was driven by anger at my ex-spouce. Although the result was an abysmally bad work, I proved to myself that I could write 100,000 words on one idea. And what happened to a character that resembled my ex was deeply satisfying.Warren Bullhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07789270258599769915noreply@blogger.com
