The POV character may know anything you want them to know without having to reveal it to the reader.  A major character in my novel would be an example. The protagonist talks with this character quite frequently but no one else knows anything about this character though clues are left with each encounter.  A few readers have come close to guessing, but not one was sure of the true meaning of the character until finally repealed by the protagonist. No one ever expressed being "cheated" along the way. Why try to change your approach for no valid reason? Take care. Vern

LOL, good God, don't listen to PeePee.  Check insurance wise, insurance wise, Ray, ignore PeePee period, and for the rest of you folks, don't use hydroxychloroquine either. Hope I covered it all. Love your wit TW. Take care. Vern

Congrats on a positive result. Maybe you can incorporate that plot line with a few more sinister twists into your next novel. Take care. Vern

I guess the sunny side might be if it takes off and makes millions, it's in your name and you could then afford a good lawyer to go after all of it. At least that's what I tell folks who ask about the danger of having my book stolen from a site such as this or similar ones. Of course it would be easier to have recourse if it were in the U.S. but I suppose at some point it might make sense for overseas as well. At any rate, good luck going forward and hopefully the site will stop any further misuse. Take care. Vern

You're welcome, I'm sure. Well, it's better than silence while we're sitting at home or walking around like bank robbers. I'm still waiting on that one. BTW, folks, a toilet paper factory blew up in Maine so better stock up on magazines and corn cobs,  lol. Take care. Vern

Well, you should've threatened to unplug it. Take care. Vern

And now we know the rest of the story, lol. Take care.

Take care. Vern

Don't know of any way to delete them all at once, but then I don't know why it's necessary either. They are in chronological order (or you can list them that way) so it's not like you have to search for the latest ones. Just saying. At any rate, you should have plenty of time during the "lockdown" to get rid of them. Take care. Vern

This one seems to fit the mood during these semi-shut-in times. I auditioned this for America's Got Talent several years ago and changed the words to fit in with the audition. Of course they warn you not to be original but what the hell, it seemed like a good idea at the time. They had told us the audition would only last ninety seconds so I figured they would stop me before I got too far in, but unfortunately they didn't stop me and I got a bit nervous and forgot the words about halfway through, lol. This is how I rewrote the words:

Before the AGT audition
I couldn’t find a way to hold my head that didn’t hurt
But the chorus I sang for breakfast wasn’t bad
So I did one more for dessert
Then I fumbled in the closet through my clothes
And found my blackest lucky shirt
Then I looked in the mirror and pumped myself
And sauntered down the stairs to meet the day.

I’d agonized the night before
With doubts of which song I’d be pickin’
But I practiced this little one
Strummin’ on an air guitar that I was stickin’
Then I walked into that little room
And I could almost taste the friction
And it reminded me of those nerves I’d lost
Somewhere, somehow along the way
Oh, that AGT audition
I’m praying, Lord, that I’ll get through
‘Cause there’s something ‘bout those judges
That gets a fellow feeling blue.
And there’s nothing short of dying
That’s half as lonesome as the sound
Of listening to your heartbeat
Waiting for the AGT hammer to come down, hmm, hmm, hmm

Take care. Vern

Anybody who believes PeePee Trump after more than 16,000 lies has a gullibility issue to say the least.  Glad you're one of the survivors. Take care. Vern

Writing is all in the eyes of the reader. For each of us there is a time and a market for the eyes which behold the talent before them. Take care. Vern
