BREAKING NEWS: A writer tells all and gives the answers we all have been waiting for
? MIN READ
A WRITER IS ONLY NEWS if a reader makes it so. My life was placed on the table—but no matter how dimly lit I made the surgical room, it was the readers who found the significance of my story.
Are we newsworthy? That, is the answer only a reader can answer—not me as they may have wanted.
​
I can try to give answers after answer. Another story about my family losing their home perhaps? But it won’t be enough, will it?
Readers read to be looking for something, so I gave it to them. Again and again. A writer can give and take away; they decide much of their story is told.
I did not tell much of my story, but I told enough for you to understand me. But readers wanted more, that’s what they came here . . . They clicked the smallest thing on the page that many would ignore. They found this, but I wanted them to. Because I wanted them to hear this from me:
Welcome back readers. I missed you.
​
Writing is a story that will never end. There is new life to live and new characters to find. So breaking news, more of this story will be told but I cannot promise when.
But now, it is time to say goodbye. Before I go, I leave my readers with this: Did you get caught in the loop? Did you forget about the extra pages opening and reopening? Did the links distract you? Yeah, me too.

A story in news for you is me,
and me is you.
