I knew a guy just like this, but in a different profession. He always reinvented the wheel because it was a matter of pride that he never read the literature of his profession. In reality, working with him was painful. In fiction, it's funny! Good job!
I enjoy reading a Lit story using a song as its muse. This was my tongue-in-cheek contribution using “Every Rose has its Thorn.” Using the 750-word event helped me complete my first story without getting into too much trouble.
I like the song, but the chorus always stuck me funny especially the line, “Every cowboy sings a sad, sad song.” It doesn’t stop me from singing it when comes on the radio. In fact, it helps me enjoy it even more.
I guess the song put me in a giddy mood while writing, which is probably why the story went in the direction it did. Making the posting fun was my way of bringing a smile to the reader’s face. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
You'll find it oh so true in almost all walks of life. I know this has been said about a thousand times!!😁
