I have a favor to ask. If anyone here is familiar with the Britcom "Keeping Up Appearances," I would appreciate some feedback on a fanfiction story I've just completed.

I regard this as first draft, as it's still not quite up to "post it online" standards yet. My eventual goal is to post it on a couple of the fanfiction sites I belong to. As it's fanfiction, of course no profit can be made from this, and I wouldn't even try.

What I hope to get from anyone here who might want to read it now is whether the plot makes sense (keeping in mind that this is a quirky comedy that doesn't always make sense to normal people but does when you know how odd some of the characters are). Does it seem true to the characters? Is the resolution satisfying? How could I improve it?
 
So... no interest? :(

I've been doing some edits and am pretty much satisfied with it now.
 
I want to read it!

Btw, I've been thinking about getting a tattoo. This is my attempt to create the tattoo I want, but I still want the art to be done by a professional tatoo artist.

With the rise of the right everywhere I wanted to do this when Trump was no longer president, but with the increased attempts at gerrymandering and all the vile things, i'm worried about the next election.

So I thought why not now? My tattoo is a combination of both my identity as a lesbian and a someone with autism, the quote seemed appropriate considering the whole tylenol business and the increased hostility towards the LGBTQI community. But the quote should be under the lesbian infinity symbol, not above it. What I haven't decided is where I should put it on my arm, should put somewhere visible? Or invisible by my sleeve? It's going to be my first tattoo

I found four of the poems I wrote back in 2018 which I posted here in 2018..... I'm posting them here now :D

And one I just wrote in my head




Sleep

For as they lay down to sleep
Their eyes close and darkness comes
For they will slumber in the void
Endless rest for all their toils

For as we are sad that they are gone
They move on to a new song
A new life beyond this one
One day we will meet them under a new sun

I put the wrong date, I actually finished it tonight/morning, but anyway, another tune done. I'm kind of fond of this one.
