    Bringing Mom Home

    Plans are set and preparations are made. Next week, Dad, myself, and my wife will be traveling back to our hometown (where much of my family is from anyway) to intern mom's urn. My dad's a veteran, so he was able to reserve a spot for him and mom in a state veteran's cemetery years ago.

    On losing a parent

    All,

    I was planning on writing a 'state of the writer' post this weekend to update y'all on what I've been up to. But, well, I suppose the state of me right now is everything all at once.

    My mom passed away suddenly yesterday. She was 77.

New Story - The Furthest From the Tree · 5:55am Aug 9th, 2013

To borrow from the incomparable Jim Ross: "Bah Gawd King, GMP wrote a new story!"

In this case, it is in the form of The Furthest From the Tree, a one-shot that focuses on Applejack. Specifically, an Applejack that never left Manehattan.

A quick note on where this came from: I recently joined the School for New Writers group, and their most recent monthly "assignment" dealt with characterization. The specific task was to rewrite an existing character in a totally different light, with an eye towards making the reader forget about the character that they already knew. AJ and Manehattan immediately sprang to mind, so I just ran with it.

July's "assignment" was actually canceled due to scheduling issues, but I decided to finish it anyway, in order to get some more writing experience under my belt.

So, feel free to give it a read, and let me know what you think (good or bad)! :)

Thanks!
GMP
