Hi. I just had time to read 'Long way from Tall Tales' last night. I really enjoyed the interaction between Nurse Redheart and Spitfire. I think you wrote Spitfire very true to character. I could really feel her sense of annoyance in the beginning but also her dedication to duty at the same time. Redheart was a little bit of a surprise at first, as she seemed to be detached and analytical, but her compassion became evident during her interaction with Spitfire and the conductor. Overall this was a terrific story and I liked the focus on the clues and how Spitfire interpreted them. I hope you continue this story as I think there is much more to tell from Tall Tales!
2651901 I am very glad that you took the time to read Tall Tales. It was mean to be a quick project to get my mind off of other things, and ended up being quite a good little story. If you're interested in the inspiration behind it and such, I could create a post detailing the process I went through to create it.
I like to try and write a more mature and complex character than what I usually see. Spitfire does seem like one who wouldn't have that job unless they, in some way, felt duty bound or had other driving forces towards it. At the same time, nobody wants having to do grunt work in the middle of the night.
And then we have Redheart, focused don her profession. She's trained to look at the evidence first and, despite some of her best efforts, she may still be drawn into the lives of those she examines. They're both career focused characters, but that doesn't mean either of them have to be heartless or static.
They shine when they apply their logic and trade. Professionals coming together for a single purpose is something that CSI struggles to capture (even if it tries), as well as other mediums. Thought the task at hand may seem a bit cold, it's driven by knowledge and training. Not to mention curiosity.
I hadn't planned on continuing Tall Tales. I had someone else say they wanted to a see a continuation, but I thought that was from me mistakenly not hitting the 'finished' when I submitted the fiction. I do plan on continuing the way I'm writing the characters, and even have some history develop between stories, even if they are one-shots.
Though if enough people demand, I may also continue Tall Tales. Not every story in life has a conclusion, and I wanted this to come across in the story, but it could be fun in the future.
Again, thanks a million!
Hi. Sorry for taking so long to reply.....real life sure has a way of taking up time and wearing me down! Thanks for the response. I for one would like to see more of this story. Or perhaps it could be intertwined with other plots in another story. Just a random thought from someone that doesn't really write much! I'd like very much to hear what inspired the plot and characters for Tall Tales. It was an interesting read and I'd like to know some of the back story. Thanks and I hope you have a Merry Christmas!
