How about I tell you a story? A folding story?

How about I tell you a story? A folding story? One that repeatedly folds and twists and turns until it can be folded no more. But then what? What do you do with a broken story?
I use No More Nails on a broken story. Its tough adhesive action bonds a bunch of non sequitors, ridiculous plot twists & turgid paragraphs into a solid mass of prose. It's good fo
lding practice. Otherwise, add a new fold 'til it gets better, add a new fold 'til it gets better, add a new fold 'til it gets better, early in the morning! Yo-ho up she rises, yo

The lightening frightened the little boy pirates so much that they wet their scallywag drawers, but the huge waves swept across them and washed it all away. A burly mermaid danced
a Seabat's Jig accompanied by the lash on the cabin boy's back. The coxswain was choking the chicken to make a Scotsman's Pipe & the boatswain was blowing his pipe on the poopdeck.
The Sea of Words had meanwhile expanded tenfold and the boatswain attempted to catch a cadenza of alewives. But the plovers beat him to it. All was forgiven when dinner was served.
