King pulled off a hard thing--making the good more interesting that the bad.<br /><br />Unfortunately, it is too easy to screw up the world, Jemi. Hopefully writing about it in an entertaining and/or thoughtful way will make people more conscious of it.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16587645299751603897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468546013884694910.post-46031783624001330612010-06-03T20:02:12.828-04:002010-06-03T20:02:12.828-04:00There are so many ways to destroy a world...

I guess that could be biological. But, I mostly don't like the "how." I like the aftermath. I don't like reading about the actual disaster, I like reading about how we've picked ourselves up (or not).Janahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10209234434495701611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5468546013884694910.post-21552031925055811312010-06-03T10:40:53.802-04:002010-06-03T10:40:53.802-04:00Loved your examples.
