Hopefully there wont be a thunderstorm and it will stay nice and you callawhen i was up your writing i would spend a good deal of my time wishing i could understand what was like to live in world war ii. Wishing i could find the apathy, the understanding, to convey on the page what its like to live with a constant sense of uncertainty. What its like to live not knowing whats going to happen next. What its like to live through a great unknown. Now its a previously unimagined year later and all i can say is, be careful what you wish for.

Thank you christina. I was in the enemys house and also the night of the assassins and remember last year it seems like in a year ago before the sequestering part of a previous lifetime, last year when i was working on the assassins, i spent a lot of time reading about world war ii, i tried to put myself in the shoes of the people i was reading about, and to protect one family and protect myself. And they found the perseverance, the fortitude to get through events is who i am now, where i wrote my book and if you hear noises in the background, those are not horns, is a college hilltop in connecticut and hopefully that will not be a thunderstorm. But through the writing i would spend a good view of my time wishing that i could understand what it was like to live in world war ii.

The night of the assassins remember it seems a lot longer than a year ago but i wont digress. Last year when i was working on a night of the assassins, i spent a lot of time reading about world war ii and tried to put myself into the shoes of the people i was reading about. I wondered if i had made the choices they made to protect the families and protect myself. But i have found the fortitude, courage. Its where i am now where i wrote my book with a few annoyances in the background and frogs croaking in the pond college hilltop in connecticut. Hopefully there wont be a thunderstorm and it will stay nice. But when i visit here i think i would spend a good deal of my time wishing i could understand what it was like to live through world war ii and find an understanding to convey on the page what its like to live with a constant sense of uncertainty and not knowing whats going to have been mac, what its like to live through a great unknown.
