Deep Into The Darkness Peering

I know a guy who likes to write and is working on a novel about an old man who works in an orchard until some buggy aliens come through the universe, destroying everything and everyone.

He said, "And it doesn't have a happy ending. Everyone dies."

I said, "Yeah. But I think you should focus on making it seems like there's hope throughout the story UNTIL you kill everyone off at the end so it has a stronger impact. You're focused on having everyone die but I think there's room for a lot more misery in this story than just that."

Because I like doing my part.

To make things better?

Wow, what's going on with you? Suddenly we're getting posts every day, and sometimes even more than one? How fortunate are we?
