Ive spent WAY too much time trying to imagine exactly WHAT this would even LOOK like like …I mean I SHOULD be getting my daughter ready for school BUT I can’t stop trying to picture this
Tbh I don’t do as much reading as I’d like and used to do BUT I got a kick outta the sample chapter
Ok NOW I can only picture it play out like the pottery scene from “Ghost” and I just imagine Benny standing behind the Bank Owner while gently cupping his hand under the bank owners to “guide” his throw
As good an explanation as any. Thanks for taking the time to read it Matthew.
Ha I’m honored that chapter could distract you for a few minutes. I suppose a better way to describe what I imagined would be to think of Spider-man and his webs or a cowboy and his lasso. Benny’s yo-yo string works in this scene in that manner to grab Stan’s hand to shake. Once the handshake is done the yo-yo unwinds from around Stan’s wrist and returns to Benny’s hand.
I suppose adding the word string with yo-yo would have made the description clearer.
I’m not even joking when I say I haven’t read a single chapter of a novel in about 15 years so the fact I read the whole sample is a testament to how I genuinely enjoyed it
I think you should have written a super heavy stainless steel responsive yo-yo into that chapter…
That way the yo-yo would have wrapped around Stans hand and immediately un-wound violently and come back and smashed Stan right in the melon and clocked him out for a 10 count.
Then the story would have been much more exciting and shorter, ya think?
Ha!
Some titanium yo-yos whacking people in the head does come into play later.
You’ll have to read the book to see if Stan’s one of the people who gets thwacked.
