Restricted Relationships

Afternoon again fellow classmates,
   If you have been reading my blog post I thank you and if you happened to read my one labeled "Outcasts", this post is in relation to that one. I am smack dab in the middle of my book right now and I am enjoying it greatly. It is filled with life lessons, stories of people who have gone through rough patches in there lives and now feel "in heaven", and short chapters which I tend to enjoy in a book because it makes the book seem shorter than it really is (it's a mental thing to me). I decided to talk about relationships in my blog post today, but not just any relationships, restricted ones.
   You may ask yourself, what does she mean she says restricted relationship?, I just mean a relationship with a loved one that has boundaries, meaning you can't always be together. It can be a boyfriend/girlfriend, wife/husband, sibling, or a best friend. Anyway, in my novel, Neil, the one year inmate, is having trouble with his wife because he is not able to see her 24/7 like he was used too only a few weeks ago. When he got sent off to prison he promised her he would call everyday, write everyday, and that he would have people sending money to her and the children so she wouldn't have to go back to work, all she would have to do is take care of the children. So far Neil has not kept his promise to call everyday, and folks who were supposed to send over money to Linda, Neil's wife, have not, therefore she had to go back to work and is not happy with that. After I read that today it got me to foreshadow on this book. I was wondering to myself, is Linda gonna call for a divorce when Neil gets out or will she stay in the marriage for the sake of her children? Will things ever go back to normal between him and his wife? I guess I will have to read more to find out.

  1. This seems like a very interesting book that I would love to read. I'm a little confused when you said stories of people. Do you mean that this book has multiple stories in it? I'm going to put this on my to-read list because I like books about peoples stuggles.
