Well, your doing better then me. Should aim for a goal like that.

Now, this was a true story from the soul. The first half I loved, and was the something I have been waiting to see, a good nonthrusday prompt on the first page. Didn't even realize it was you until I scrolled down. It was the end you wanted and thus story is grounded, and more then ever the story people need to here and read. There is another end too with that line and in that end there is a different power, now this is the end that I prefer, but in the schools of thought this story carries weight either way. Very fine Lu-man, I know you've been struggiling with writing, this is high quality so take all the pride in it you can muster.
I have not had this much enjoying something on FA for a long time.

Thank you so much!

I was not proud of this story at all, but you made me change my mind a little bit. This tale is as old as time and some of the characters here are based on real people that I have worked with my year or so in radio.

Thanks again. I may visit this universe a bit more.

"This tale is as old as time,"
Key words here. Now, with a tale as old as time it depends on what you do with it that makes it cliché, dull, archetypal, and trope filled.
That too is where you put your ending line and watch that dialogue.
For there are reasons the tale as old as time still speak to us and our needs.

Yeah, I never read that far into the tale, really. I suppose I should, it might improve my writing.

But you are correct, stories like that speak to the soul, a special spot that touches the primal.

I'll try to revisit this station again, I'm curious myself now as to how they'll do

This is an amazing Story You've Got going here! I do a lot of work for people around here, in the business that I'm in, and one of my good friends, is one of the sales managers for the local radio stations. It's gotten to be exactly that way all over, as in they have three of local radio stations, all Under One Roof now. And guess how many disc jockeys they have. Yep you guessed it there are zero. I missed this stuff a lot, and when I know that this comes from this network and that comes from that Network and whatever it just takes all of the personality out of it. When he tells the owner and you got your soul back! I just loved that. Keep it up man I'm hoping that there is another part of this coming through sometime. I want to see what happens to! I love this story man I can just come over there and kiss you, but that would be inappropriate wouldn't it. But this is a feeling that I've had for a long time. I have watched radio die, and it's easy for me to see it, since I've been around long enough to see it when it was truly alive. Thank you so much for this story.

Thank you! Such is the reason I wrote it. Disc jockeys were the true personality of a radio station. A good disc jockey was the face, the smile and the soul of it. Conglomerate radio forgets that, hires these big name guys and have them do sindicated shows that no one actually likes with the canned laughter behind it.

If you have to record yourself laughing at your own bit, hpw funny is it, really?

I will return to WZZX sooner or later to find out how they're doing, don't worry.

Thank you again for the kind words.

I have some questions about this scene:

"He sighed as a tear started to roll down his face. It trailed down his muzzle and landed on the sound board in front of him."

1. When that dog cried cried, did his tear specifically trail down:
A: The bridge of his muzzle and off the tip of his nose as he hung his head
or
B: The side of his muzzle diagonally and off his lower jaw and chin

2. Exactly how would that dog react and what would he say to me if I hugged him, rubbed his back and licked that tear trailing down his muzzle with my tongue during the scene where he cried? Because every time I read that, I fantasize licking that tear from that dog's muzzle.

3. Dumb question but on a scale from 1 to 10 with 10 being the saltiest, how salty would that dog's tear taste on my tongue if I licked it directly from his muzzle?

4. On a scale from 1 to 10 with 1 being freezing cold and 10 being scalding hot, how warm was that tear trailing down that dog's muzzle?

5. What's the name of that dog who shed the tear upon the sound board?

I know these questions sound weird but please please PLEASE reply back!

I'll only answer kne question. His name is Fred. I tend to not introduce character names until there's a reason: i.e. someone calls him or he signs something, etc...
