86. Play for Keeps

Two old friends have been playing marbles together in the park every Saturday for years, usually with a small group of neighborhood kids gathered around to play.Then they come across something that, by now, should probably be familiar.A black marble.I wrote this story quite a while ago, and recorded it A while ago. Now that I’ve finally put the whole thing together, there are definitely some things I’d change if I were writing it today. But, honestly, I still really love this story and what I was trying to do with it.It’s slow. It’s deliberately pedantic. There’s a lot of detail on things that don't really matter, short conversation, and a lot of time spent simply being with Arthur. I wanted the story to move at the pace that felt right for them.I truly hope you enjoy it and thank you for being here!Eli was David Cook(VoiceGod on tiktok)Join the Dead Air Theater on DiscordJoin Patreon for free or as a Patron to enjoy ad free episodesOther links Hosted on Acast.
