If you've arrived at The Strange Case of Lydia Lang via a post and noticed that Lydia has one last name in my tweet or Facebook post and a different name here, you've noticed correctly. Before publication, I changed the main character's last name from Lee to Lang, but didn't update the social media function.
Or maybe Lydia Lang's life is stranger than I thought.
I’ve got to say, when I found out that Lydia was a dentist, that freaked me out more than anything else in the story up to that point. A sleep deprived dentist is scary! The amount of damage they can do in that state in freaky to think about.
Then I got to the end, and it was like a one-two punch. I wasn’t expecting that at all! But now I’m wondering, is Calvin actually going through time or is he getting a taste of his own medicine?
I'm delighted you enjoyed The Strange Case of Lydia Lang and the story's twists and turns.
Lydia's journey was plucked from behind the curtain that separates physics and magic. As for what happened to Calvin, I can't say for sure, but I can say that he got what he deserved.
Congratulations Bill! This one must become a movie. You keep doing it again and again... You create my favorite one, and make me believe it's the top... And then BANG!
Midjourney is not hard to learn. The key is the right prompts -- the words you use to describe what you'd like Midjourney to draw. The more specific, often the better. There are some sliders you can adjust to change the output, too. Ping me and I'd be happy to help.
There are also so AI art apps for phones. They're not as powerful as Midjourney, but fun to experiment with while laying on the sofa. One is StarryAI, which is available for iPhone and Android.

Well done, Bill, well done!
Thank you, Jenise. I'm happy you enjoyed The Strange Case of Lydia Lang.
Another great one Bill. Glad it turned not to be ONLY time travel. But I guess the final surprise was to Calvin.
Thanks, Scott. The universe gave Calvin what he deserved.
In the tail end, I was thinking 1) something needs to happen to this dude ... and 2) what about that damned newspaper clipping?
And then BAM! You gift wrapped them. Really fun one.
Thanks, Patrick. I glad it all came together and that you enjoyed The Strange Case of Lydia Lang.
Interesting
Thanks!
A man of his standing had to have a Rolex Submariner.
I loved this story. As usual a twist at the end.
Thanks, Kristofa. I'm glad I never knew Calvin personally. ;-)
Love this! I've been looking at Midjourney. Is it easy to use?
Thanks, Dascha. I'm happy you liked the story.

Thanks! I'm just waiting to be a little healthier before I tackle it. Maybe in a couple of days.
I hope you feel better quickly.

Thanks. I'll look into that.
Wow! This is great!
Thank you, Christina. I'm happy you enjoyed The Strange Case of Lydia Lang.
Twisty, turny, and absolutely delightful to read! Especially enjoyed the ending!
