Reginald's beer, a pine tree air freshener, a funny-bone fake-chuckle, a twelve-thousand dollar electric bike, a title, a baby wrench, drumsticks, a deer in a pickup, and All Who Wander.
Once again, Adam, a chapter to just sit back and imagine. You paint a damn fine picture with words, my friend.
Poor Reginald — first a deer in headlights and then a deer in the back of a truck. The thing is, he’s really not the only one for whom easier can be so much harder. I dig these characters and their plights!
“He’d never felt so low and defeated, which was a high bar.” Yeh, this just about sums up Reginald’s arc. Here’s hoping for a Disney ending and a little hockey-stick on this undeserving trajectory!

🦌💡thank you, Holly. Sometimes easier is definitely harder. Even putting a sentence on a page sometimes.

I think you’re in safe hands.
Nice blend of heart and sly smirks. Hapless and relatable characters. You have mastered this medium (Substack).
Hard to think of a nicer compliment, Michael. Thank you for reading my work.
