Update: The Things He Carried · 3:37pm Mar 9th, 2020
Hey, y'all!
I just wanted to apologize for the wait for the next chapter, it's going to take a while. I have a lot on my plate right now, so it's kinda hard to write. I'm not dropping the story, but I will say that it's coming to an end soon (completed).
In the meantime, cheers!! ✌

Its fine, Take your Time. We all struggle sometimes
Any plans on a sequel?
Edit: asking as it seems kinda short to complete so soon story wise.
Did you steal the title idea from Tim O'Brien?

Yeah, but I'm also slowly losing motivation, so it would be better to wrap it up sooner than dumpster-fire it later.

I prefer the term "inspired".

And a bit of the intro from Norman Bowker's bit?

You act as if I plagiarized. It is heavily based on Norman Bowker's intro, yes, as that was a scene that hit me especially hard while reading the book.
But the real question is this: why so cynical? The way in which you're bringing this up communicates that you're just looking for a fight.
If not, think about how you word things - I can't say I appreciated the most recent comment you left on the story as it was rude, uncalled for, and generally unhelpful. Some people genuinely struggle with it - so please, mind what you say.

I'm not saying you did plagiarize the intro. I was simply stating that parts of it sounded familiar.
