about going from describing how her husband was electrocuted, to in the next paragraph describing a failed date as there not being a spark between them.
I am sorry to hear you are having trouble with your stories. You have been one of the most prolific and consistently good writers on this site. Thank you for sharing your stories.
Good story and good journeyman writing, as always. Your workmanship is in the upper 1/10% of what gets published here. But the story lacks tension. It's a good formulation: man loses dog, man gets dog and girl. But it lacks the "man loses girl" element. We can see the complete plot just as soon as Logan spies his dog across the park. There has to be some adversity the characters overcome, otherwise the plot is too pat.
With the comment below arguing there was a lack of tension. Frankly I think that's a common theme among many of your stories, and probably also ties into your boredom.
I made a comment suggestion once for a story idea and I still think it's a good one: a dark rewrite of Climbing Jacob's Ladder, with the father still alive.
You have a way of weaving a tale that draws emotions from me in a most unexpected manner! I love how I can predict the couple will get together and still get choked up when they actually do! You are a storyteller Komrad1156!
