Dr...I like the recurrent image of Orion the hunter. Draws the beginning (and end) of Cantrell together nicely. It helps the flash act as a self-contained narrative, although you could easily pursue this and simply continue the Orion motif.Icy Sedgwickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11501193571425442406noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064125998898504251.post-90371527333591635942011-03-14T14:04:45.518-05:002011-03-14T14:04:45.518-05:00Good story!

Hope you'll keep working on this one and agree with John that you should have more readers.Harryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09628269009060185397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064125998898504251.post-5840723910547513122011-03-12T23:05:11.256-06:002011-03-12T23:05:11.256-06:00I agree with John - you've got an interesting ...I agree with John - you've got an interesting character here.

Wanted to see if there were any issues.

Maybe someday it will.<br /><br />John: Thanks for reminding me that I haven't posted a Twitter blurb in a while. In the past, I've hit Twitter once and then left it alone. The thought has always been that while advertising is good, it's bad to annoy the e-community. The last couple of weeks, however, I've been a bit lazy in the promotion. I'll be sure to post a blurb out there for this story though.Stephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04753736809917062955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1064125998898504251.post-44179226563031537402011-03-12T12:52:06.809-06:002011-03-12T12:52:06.809-06:00The procedural details and experienced tone in the...The procedural details and experienced tone in the first few paragraphs sets it up very well, Stephen. Good job as usual.
