MISS!! As a writer I am fully aware of the desire
to hurt or kill off characters you don't like. I even regrettably admit
to doing that in some of my fan fiction stories. However there is a difference
between creativity and plain torture. Let me explain. In my stories if
and when I hurt a character their is always a story line purpose involved.
I don't just hurt a character and be done with it I involve it in the story.
For example in And Together We Shall Fly Once More Joe is in a horrible
car crash and nearly dies. But this accident brings the Scanlon family
close again and leads to Joe sending Frank to med. school. So while it
was dreadful it was story line useful. Now lets look at Chris. The
writers don't give him story lines and when they do they only hurt the
character or make the character feel bad. What was the point of Livvie
but make Chris look even more slimy. It didn't lead to anything for him,
didn't resolve anything for him, certainly didn't play into a bigger story
for him. Just made him look bad. Then we have him pouring his heart out
to Eve wanting her as his wife and her being the heartless cold fish she
is turning him away. This was devastating to Chris but you know as well
as I do that story will never go anywhere either. Why because the writers
aren't interested in writing for Chris only hurting him and as a writer
I can say that is an absolutely disgraceful way to write.
HIT!!!! Every time I think I couldn't
be more impressed with Jay, love Frank anymore, or be anymore pleased with
the Frank and Karen pairing I get proven wrong. Jay did absolutely amazing
this week as he fought time, the people in the past and himself all in
the name of love. You could truly see the desperation, pain, fear and loss
in Franks face. When Frank was trapped in that white room it was nerve
racking and you could see Franks utter confusion and hopelessness.
Then like a fairy tale come true Karen's voice alone brought him home.
The relief and sheer Joy on Franks face as he ran to Karen and held her
tight was overwhelming. The love between Frank and Karen is so real and
believable and the end of this story so fairy tale like my heart melted.
I love the twist of the princess bringing back the prince from his doomed
sleep and I love the fact that the prince just like in the stories will
risk it all for his princess. Long live Frank and Karen they are royalty.
Well that's it for this week folks I hope you
liked my rant and rave. Till next week enjoy PC
