I wrote I,anonymous when I first moved to Portland. I was in a situation that found me in Snuffyville Oregon. My experience there was with a crazy bible thumping couple that are really into lots of Ammo,Guns and food stockpiled to last a long,long time.
Now when I told my story, no one took it seriously. When we got up to go into the house in the evening, there was a rifle and a bow and arrow at the back door.
It was really weird,and the relatives we stayed with scared us so bad we moved out after the second day. Headed Up here and we’re running from a town called Burn,Oregon. So glad we got out of there before the Bundys showed up. Yup, it is true what they say about that part of Oregon.
That’s fine but get a friend to edit your work before submitting. This crowd, I think, appreciates linear stories where you know where you are in space and time. This was confusing, no character development, nothing. It’s almost as if the new intern is actually writing these and just submitting them itself.
The correct term is “Hootin’ Holler.”
So you spent a couple of days near Burns one time…
Hey, great story you got there, champ!!
Never stay in a small town. But if you must, never stay with relatives there. But if you must, don’t breed with your relatives and then let your monstrous children kidnap city folk and skin them for leather. But if you must, only use natural substances when tanning the leather to use it making souvenir keychains.
I just adore a penthouse view…darling I love you, but give me Park Avenue.
I remember that Snuffyville story. It was very interesting and one a lot of people could relate to. Thanks for the added touch and I am glad you got out of there also.
Hey Lazaar I’ve got something linear you can lick.
Is it all in one piece?
I know you are telling the truth. Once my Uncle went missing and told people he was going to kill himself and go over the Falls. He was missing 3 months, and his body was found in a stream where he hit his head and died an accidental death. Three inches of water!!!!!!!!
We all have family that are like the Bundys or very close. My Uncle went from famous suicide to drunk man slips on rock and thaws out in the summer.
