I'm too young to check for that stuff yet I think

Thanks you guys! I am feeling a little more confident. They did bloodwork to see if it was still working or if I needed medication to make it work and as far as the bloodwork shows, it's still working fine.
Also I'm overdue for my Hepatitis B vaccine and it's a three part vaccine so I didn't really want to do it, as I'm so busy. So they did a blood test and I'm in fact immune to HepB. Yay good news for once!

I wrote a first chapter for the dolls. It says my real name on it just ignore that and still call me Shamus lol.

Shamus: Will check the story out, so excited you are inspired!
Good news on the bloodwork it sounds like a positive response and not going to be as serious as you had thought?? Hopefully something simpler to fix??

I thought HepB vaccine was a once and done??? If you were vaccinated before then that is probably why it is showing as immune now.

Now Hep C I don't know about. That is the more serious one, usually associated with contracting from drug use or blood exchange.

Shamus, you have me intrigued

[npixelz]

Or does intrigue have you Shamused?

[Lemon Cheesecake]

either way ... I can picture the story in my mind ... especially as an anime after seeing the pictures of the dolls he is writing the story about for his daughter.

Hi, Shamrock Shamus!

I liked your story. I agree with everything Lemon said! Good writing describes the effect of the scenario in relation to human senses (visual, sound, tactile, taste--you didn't use smell, but that's easily addressed). Great writing combines these in interesting and unusual ways to present more complex things.

You let us know earlier what your goals for this story are, and if I may, can I suggest an idea that would make your writing perhaps a little more effective? (I'm of the "design is destiny" school of thought--engineering dictates outcome.)

I don't know much about autism, but I do know everyone is different and I while I don't know where your daughter fits on the spectrum other than being Level 2 with fine motor skills limits. Perhaps you could include more cues to help develop those areas that would be ideally helpful and inspirational. For example you might find ways to incorporate how your character or characters solve or deal with similar challenges. It could be done for interpreting facial expressions, etc.. I hope this makes sense.

As a bonus, be sure to mention to your professor that's what you're doing. As a former student in a former life, I learned that framing your assignment on your own terms (within the assignment's criteria of course) more often than not, guides your professor to view and grade you from that perspective.

Win-Win-Win!

Looking forward to Meng's next bit of adventure!
