Woke up to dense fog this morning which still appears to be dense. The temperature is supposed to rise to a rather balmy 56 degrees. I have no idea what that is in Celsius.
Highly aggravated. Feel profoundly stuck and want snipe at things. Hopefully it'll pass.
On a side note, one of my uncles has announced on Facebook that his...supernatural Christmas thriller about the birth of Jesus has stayed in Amazon's Top Ten list in...Denmark for three weeks.
Yes, I said Denmark. This was not a misprint. He's doing the happy snoopy dance or as he put it Snoopy is dancing because it's on the Amazon top ten list in Denmark. I restrained myself from telling him, "it's "the "happy snoopy dance" NOT Snoopy is dancing". Seriously, Denmark? I haven't read the book - the story isn't my cup of tea or coco as the case may be. (In that I don't tend to like preachy Christian/religious supernatural thrillers...I have enough problems with Jim Butcher.)
Talking about stories that don't work for you or rather plot-threads or tropes that take you out of the story or make you stop reading...
There's about four or five in fanfiction and specifically genre fiction that will make me stop watching or give up on the story entirely. These are narrative devices or tropes or whatever you want to call them because really drawing a blank here - that disrupt the story for me personally and make me stop reading.
( the 6 story points that pull me out of the story and often decide to stop reading )
Okay, came up with 6. Feel free to share yours..if you feel so inclined.
