Whales in River Frightened and Fascinated Bangor Crowds
I have a collection of news articles about odd occurrences like these. Situations when the world went a little weird, a little off from what we expect. Families raised entirely secluded from others in the mountains of Russia. Elephants who show compassion for humans. A lot of World War II stories when enemies became friends. These are the stories that inspire me to write. Not necessarily about them, but they prove that anything can happen. No story is too far-fetched because life is so unpredictable.
This summer I have set writing goals for myself. I have eight checkpoints, eight dates between now and August in which I hope to have finished certain pieces of fiction written, edited or submitted by. One of the deadlines is tomorrow and I have two characters already picked out for that deadline, however they aren't yet speaking to me. But these whales are, so my mind will be in 1954 Bangor, ME today if you need me.
