<font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2">Originally posted by davek: In the bridge, maybe you could paint the picture more clearly that it was the fault/responsibility of both Mom and Dad. I came away from the bridge feeling like Mary had walked out and was the "bad guy" in this situation.</font> Dad's fault was that he worked late too much <font face="Verdana, Arial" size="2"> Maybe also try substituting 'mommy' for 'Mary' - that might keep it more focussed on the perspective of the boy.</font> The story is not told from the boy's perspective; that's why I chose to use Mary instead of Mommy, except in the boy's quote.

"If you are stuck in your musical composing, be unreasonable. Change your environment. If you are stuck in your lyrical efforts, instead of forcing the same old words out, force yourself to do unreasonable things." -Brian Austin Whitney
