“Afraid of her…”
“I honestly think she may be afraid of (the suspect) . . .” It’s been over a year since I sent the NH State Police my newest “hot tip” (at that time) about the Stacey Burns murder case. Today, I checked with the source of that tip to...On Writing -Sorry, Mr. King
All right, I admit to stealing Stephen King’s title from his outstanding book for writers. This will be brief. I’ll also admit to being “old school” when it comes to writing. We subscribe to two newspapers on Sunday. Curious, after just...Never too old to be discouraged?
