#ABPOS The Thinner Soul, Chp. 16


Monica Shepherd- I thought about Radiance's song practically all night.  I didn't know why I was following her career so closely, but I had all of her releases and played them often.  They didn't disturb my senses, and I found that I could even play her while I was painted.  It's the thoughtfulness in her lyrics, and the way she lends herself to the role of being the main character.  She simply has a real draw about her.  

I was also thinking about the questions about the Dunbar name that came up, and the dark areas.  I constantly wondered if he would return again with more questions.  Although they seldom did, unless they were tied to something really important.  I'd never met Radiance, but after hearing her newest song, I thought perhaps I would see one of her concerts.  Afterall she was a true artist like me.

I went a step further in my questioning, and planned a visit to a University library I knew of where there's all kinds of information you don't expect to be there.  I thought to do a little research on the Dunbar name.  Maybe I would find something more to point to if he ever showed up again. 

When I got there, it was a quiet day.  I didn't ask to be led, but instead, I allowed my instincts to roam and see if there were any other biases leading me.  I eventually landed with several dictionaries of surnames, and I got swept up in all the family tree records.  There was nothing on Dunbar, but I wasn't dissuaded.  There was much one could assume safely, but I could judge he was apart of a high stakes game, and I wanted to have something riveting in my arsenal of truths.  So, I kept looking.

A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel- Chapter 9

 Thank you for following UnEarth and A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel.   (Click on the Image to open a clearer view) #ABPOS The Thinner Soul, Chp. 9 Reece-   Women in business.  Always a friendly fight. We built what became of Ample Records; the household name and the phenomenon.  I'm overseer of management, and Kaylin walked away with all her publishing rights and most of the fame.  With "Death to Forty" the legacy continues.  I'm slouched in my seat when they come through the door one after each other like Dunbars do.  I know it's just the way the clock struck them.   I'm stunned by her resolve, but we're all stunned by each other's resolve.  They're book publishing royalty and we're new money in music, but it's one room, and we know how we all got here.  I'm sitting upright by the time everyone sits.  Radiance is not far behind with her heart shaped lenses.  "Nice Shot."  Sam congra...

Chapter 1, Camie's Secret

A Better Pair of Shoes, a novel                                                                     Chapter 1 Introduction ( narrated by Kayla) Just as we are living souls; life itself has a soul.  And there’s a heartbeat to life.  I call it the rising and the falling.  Just as we must rise, I’ve learned that we must fall.  I find that I’m grateful for the things I learn when I fall, yet I often dislike the cuts they bring and the scars they leave behind.  Today I fell, but perhaps for months I’ve been falling, and I have all the bumps and bruises to prove it.  Although they’re not visible to the eye, they are surely recorded on my soul.  It’s funny how often my spirit tried to warn me, with a bit of melancholy here and uncertainty there, but at the time, I hadn’t considered t...

A Better Pair of Shoes "The Thinner Soul", a novel - Chapter 7 and 8

(Click on the Image to open a clearer view) #ABPOS "The Thinner Soul", Chp. 7 Monica Shepherd-   What is it with guys and art galleries this millennia: a general period of righteousness and happiness?  It's the new wave of hoppers.  I used to stand at the corner of the gallery and watch loads of women come through looking for their life's subject in the canvases on the walls.  Now it's unknown males just staring with whatever the search hidden deep within.  I haven't been able to pin point the caravan in their hearts or the subjects lingering in their messenger bags.  I'm captured by his gaze.  Standing from behind it's still a deep gaze.  I'm studying his selections; where his feet are led to stop, and he appears to have a solid question.  I mean.. the three artists, the stories, and their gifts.  I study them all as they come and go.  I know the types they draw, and I know he's coming my way.  It was the recognition he a...
