Under the Heading: Keep It Real

[glennagirl.livejournal.com]

This one addresses the subject of gunshot and knife wounds, and the presence of such in fiction.  We tend to put a bullet in our guys and then let them 'walk it off', or blithely write about all of the scars they have.  Anyone with that much damage would probably be out of the field pretty quickly.  Perhaps we need to rethink this whole scenario.  We're killing our characters and we don't even know it!
So, literary license aside, give it a read.

They even crashed that convertible a few times didn't they? Yeah, definitely a need for that suspension of disbelief.
I'm not going to get all legalistic over it, but I do like things sort of within the realm of possibility.
Your story sounds good.
