[Ambrose]

This is a good story Wesley. I like the main character, and how resigned to everything he is, just drinking to kill the time and to hell if he loses his job. The turmoil in the bar was unexpected and I feel like I needed to have read the rest of the story to understand what was going on. Still, you handle your characters like a seasoned writer. Some good, solid descriptions kept me reading right to the end. I want to know what happened to John, both after the bar and much much before it. What was his life like? What led him to that fateful night?

I can't believe this hasn't been commented on yet. This is a great piece of fiction. I hope you choose to submit more.
