Both should have the same last name (I don't think Mike is Brant's mother's brother but you'd have to ask Ed Grainger.) Anyway, I stand corrected, and if Gary will do it, I suggest the mistaken Avery last name be replaced with Macy.ChuckTyrellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02609200010767178944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5945802533317836555.post-27938354384395910832011-08-07T06:52:06.644-07:002011-08-07T06:52:06.644-07:00That was as quick and efficient as ripping off a b...That was as quick and efficient as ripping off a bandaid--complete with nervy tension for the reader!<br /><br />Great job!Alyssa Goodnighthttp://alyssagoodnight.com/blognoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5945802533317836555.post-46077467024858150062011-08-03T15:59:31.353-07:002011-08-03T15:59:31.353-07:00Dave what a great experience.

Fantastic. I also thought it was smart how you made the reader doubt Macy's guilt at first with his good will exchanges with the town folk and red head kid. Cash was cold and determined, and for the first time I actually doubted him, which I don't know if that was intentional on your part or if any of the other readers felt that way, of course all that changed in the later dialogue exchange. Really enjoyed this.
