Today’s blog posts will be Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday…
Be patient when you get a lot of notifications today. 🙂
On Tuesday, my thoughts were devoted to “crime and punishment” – from a writing standpoint, of course. In dealing with consequences for characters, I often wrestle with whether those characters should have a proverbial book thrown at them in court, or get absolutely karmic “just desserts” they are earning.
Some other thinker’s thoughts on this subject:
“Punishment is justice for the unjust.” ~ Saint Augustine
“Fear follows crime and is its punishment.” ~ Voltaire (perhaps my character should start having panic attacks?)
“Happiness is not a reward – it is a consequence. Suffering is not a punishment – it is a result.” ~ Robert Green Ingersoll
“Sometimes human places, create inhuman monsters.” ~ Stephen King
Just some scattered thoughts. Blessings to you all…
