The mill sounds like a fascinating world that I know nothing about. I cracked up at the warnings, at the brief descriptions of what goes on in the work place. I love it when the truth about things is revealed.

Looks like a job full of adventure to me.

I worked in advertising in the eighties and I got to go to Finland to shoot a commercial. There was a scene that involved log booms. I was on one of the boats. Watching these guys run on the logs... wow, that was something. And when the helicopter pilot (with the camera guy hanging out of it) landed his chopper on the logs, I thought he'd gone mad!

Just another day at the office.

You don't give a rat's ass about whether people want logging shut down? Fabulous! Honestly, I don't have an opinion on it, but I do love people who call a spade, a spade, if you know what I mean. I'm sure there are lots of "spades" in your sawmill stories. At least you haven't taken the guts out the story in the service of political correctness.

That's because people who say they want logging shut down, usually don't have a clue as to what they are talking about. My biggest issue with logging here, is that they sell the logs overseas and the sawmills here are shutting down. It's all political.

Everything is political, right?

I understand the whole paywall thing and have no problem giving value for value. It's the whole hacker stealing my credit card thing I don't like. Best wishes.

You don't have to leave. The FREE portion of my 'Stack will always be FREE. That's where I will be putting up my NEW stories and reading them out. The PAID section is just my SERIAL novels. I'm putting my Mill stories up there because people want them, and I figure if they want them that badly, they can access the PAYWALL. I don't put too much stock in what's behind the PAYWALL. Personally, I feel most of my effort should go into my SHORT STORIES AFTER EIGHT.
