Beware of Edgars bearing gifts.

So good. Gave me a Hitchcock meets Twilight Zone meets old Superman tv series vibes.

I swear I didn't think TZ once when I was writing, but that really fits. And I love that comparison.

I love her. I don't blame her for leaving me. I'm not one of those guys.

Those clowns who waddle through the bar whining about their ex wives probably accomplish nothing but costing themselves a shot at ex wife number 2

Ain't life grand.

Sometimes we're in a position where we're not quite certain if we control life or it controls us.

That is the question which must be solved or it will be solved for you.

This was an interesting story.

Just felt like messing with a little mystery. Glad it worked for a few people.

Happy to stick around for the next surprise.

You've pretty much written chapters on self-help, motivation, intrigue, crazy, next door, beliefs, etc.

Your incredible scope as a writer continues to expand!

Let the wows continue!

That's what I hoped for. Because I didn't choreograph the chill. I just got to a point where I thought" ok, this is creepy."
