"Shotgun Blast To Abdomen Just Pisses Wilford Brimley Off More" was a story The Onion did many years ago. Scary dark shit does make a good story. Onward and upward!

I’m on Wilfred Brimley and exercise and moderation. It works but I really gotta keep up my end of the bargain. Glad you got it sorted.

Whoah had no idea it was as bad as that! Really glad you are feeling better, but it totally sucks you couldn’t get back down South 😔

We just pushed it back a few weeks.

Oh man. I’m sorry you went through this. Glad you’re back to 92%… keep going! Higher!

Keep writing keep breathing my friend

Every day so far I give a number like that, then by this time of day I’ve lowered it by 8%. But still heading upwards.

You talk about feeling like shit better than anybody I know. And you don't look at all like a writer or a writing professor in that hat. More like one of your characters maybe. Keep up the good work!

Are you kidding? I’m terrified of my characters!

Happy you’re on the mend! Great story by the way of this whole journey. Loved the abstraction of it all through Wilfred and MGK. Fun and entertaining!

Yeah, through the scary dark shit, there must be absurdity to make it a good story.

Wishing the best for continued good health (and great writing)!

Anthony Neil Smith's avatar

Thanks. I think the health part will be fine (gulp), but it is this ridiculous story.
