The Beast of the Number or Vingt Mille Kudos Sous les Mers
Author:
Perhaps I’m not really the Beast of the Number but I do like to play with numbers. Hard to avoid that, burdened as I am by heritage and education. In the mix you have accounting, engineering, statistics-based “sooth-saying”, business administration. Oh, forget about that last, those people can’t count. I mean how hard is the equation of a straight line?
Since the subject line contains the word “Kudos” some here will immediately accuse me of selling out to please readers. To that I’m guilty only to a small degree. Had that been really true I’d never have posted my dark stories ”My Last Conversation with Father”, ”Commutation” or ”Alone”. Though I have to admit you surprised me on the last one. My so called sequels could have been much more crowd-pleasing (the last part of the “My Date ...” series is the lowest scoring story but I like it).
Well, to finally getting to the point. Since posting my latest story “Mousy Trap” the accumulated Kudos count has
1) Surpassed the Bru story most hit on, i.e. the number of hits
2) Centimetered (I’m not living in the US or the UK) above the 20 000 mark.
This gives me a splendid occasion to say a big and heartfelt
THANK YOU
to all who read/read my stories.
In particular all of you who have expressed some kind of appreciation.
PS
I’ll be back.
