Love this. I immediately thought of Tenacious D! And also "an autograph of failure" is a sensational line.

Yeah, had Tenacious D and Crossroads in my head when I was thinking of this 😆

I do like that line too! 👍🏼😁

It's an incredible line, plucked from the strings of some literary vault of brilliance.

Interesting to read on Notes though that some folks don’t seem to think that 50 word stories are proper writing so I guess I’m just wasting my time with these 😆

I knew there was a good reason why I had been avoiding Notes like the plague these last few months!

Madness. Stupid people.

And yeah, I've barely touched Notes in ages. I flit there occasionally, but ooof, that's just ridiculous.

Yeah, not sure if it’s the social media addiction so you spout crap just to get a reaction. I’m too old to be bothered with all that nonsense. Anyway, I’ll keep writing what I want to write if that’s OK, Mr crazy man on Notes 😆
