Basically. I just can't think of anyway to develop it, that's not
what I write anyway. So, that's why I only write short "stories".

My daughter would produce a thousand words of dialogue and description, and the couple would still be having cocktails. I read her stories and say, "Would you just kill somebody, already?"
