It's time to set Matilda aside for a bit. I can see what's wrong with it, but I'm too close to fix it. What happens is this: I can see the story, the action, the flow, and I write in a kind of shorthand. I did this a lot with Lewis Door. All those little bits of explanation were just belaboring the obvious. The problem I have with shorts is I wonder if they're worth the trouble of going back to fix. And this particular short - meh. I love the characters, but the idea is well worn. Well, maybe not the dog part. And I loved the last couple of lines.

And I'm wondering why the first female protagonist I've written in ages is a dog.

shot down twice in a week from Lone Star -- gotta love that 2 day turnaround! Bleh. I need to sleep.
