I have a huge love for firefighters as someone who had a house fire as a kid. Hopped off the school bus and walked across the train tracks to see a bunch of fire trucks at my house and flames shooting out of my room and firemen just throwing all my belongings out the window. But I can't even imagine what it's like for a whole community to go through a fire and knowing it's coming towards you, because it was just us navigating the aftermath of a surprise fire.

Wow, that sounds horrifying! Glad you're okay. Yeah, it's been a crazy week and we're thankful for all first responders

Shawshank is one of my favourites. Wonderful, entertaining, insightful talk!
Had never considered Red as the main protagonist, I’ll chew on that for a while.

Wow you guys actually read my email, I feel so honored!!!!!! Thanks so much, you really are nice dudes!!

Altaf I think you are right that it's technically a novella, part of Different Seasons, one of four of SKs longer short stories 💜
