Response to Lucas's short story: Spooky's Diner

Lucas, you love dialogue! I would like for you to take this story further. I noticed that in the heading you wrote that you were not proud of it-- I think that with some adjustments and suspense (Or some element...) it could be a successful piece. Is this a real diner in Denver? (Just wondering..). So, don't diss yourself before the reader actually reads your piece!!

Special Happy Day.... Buffey The Vampire Slayer...

I must say, this was my very first episode of Buffey the Vampire Slayer. It was a tid bit intense-- not what I expected, but I liked it. I definately saw some elements of creative non fiction writing in there as well as fiction. For example, flash backs-- what could have been vs. what should have been, relating real life circumstances (minus the creepy vampire), and raw emotions. I could definately relate this to creative writing, and I hope to be watching more Buffey in the future... Except a little less intense... You know, the mindless type of television.
