This is my blog which I intend to use for the new group that I am joining

I November 2012, I decided that I would like to join a blogging community on WDC. It basically required that we write blog entries according to specific prompts. Here is the result

Edit: the stuff from 2012 is still there, but i have a new use for this blog, namely my thoughts on old pulps. . .

Beatrice was another story which Atheling complained was too much like a detective story. He's right, to a point, but unlike Man in the Dark, this is actually a Science Fiction story in that it takes place in the future where all kinds of strange electronic devices are available.

The plot revolves around an unfortunate man who finds out that his wife is cheating and plots a revenge. Like I said, it's kind of familiar. Atheling disliked this story because all of the characters were underdeveloped types.He's not wrong. In fact, some of the weird futuristic devices kind of steal the show from the characters. And in a way, that's what I liked about it. it's almost reminiscent of Philip K. Dick with the absurdism. To be fair, it's not nearly as good as what Dick would have done with a similar premise..
