Ignatius

(Jen here)
Trask,
I like. So if I read you, we get to see him develope just like the others, then he dies, then we meet. I like. I like the JP clothing at the funeral, especially if he worked there and gave them as gifts. It would be weird and funny to for all the Eyesters trying to figure out who is who, especially if they didn't know he worked for JP. Maybe all the women are wearing the black 1947.

As far as the brother coming out, that's totally up to you and your three scenes, what you want people to know about your character's life. Sounds interesting.

And as far as ALS, I think it's perfect. Our dear family friend passed last week from it and the day before he died he was painting a picture for his daughter, so it is possible that Ignatius would post up until the end. I think it's perfect.

And I totally agree that the funeral should be very darkly awkward and funny. I love that sh@#.

Mike asked about season. Trask suggested opening on fall. If we're going for awkward funeral, it should not be the typical fall or winter death. I like spring or fall. Muddy ground or bees. So open in fall and end in spring? A nine-month-ish span?

Let's be more specific. We're a foody group, so let's open on a food post about prepping for Thanksgiving. Remember the post about family coming to visit? Something like that. So we open on the same day.

More later.
