"Prompt: “Every sunset is an opportunity to reset.” ~ Richie Norton
Let this quote inspire you to write something about sunset."

Sunset is my time to relax and take inventory of the events of the day. I also try to read from my Bible in the evening. The inventory is important for me because I like to remedy any mistakes I made throughout that day. Taking inventory helps me to see the mistakes I made that day and make a list of people that I need to make amends to. Sometimes those amends are simply to apologize and try not to make the same mistake again. Other times the amends mean taking action to fix something or make a situation right. Ii have amends I will be making the rest of my life.

What's your favorite fiction writer? Why? Do you write fiction yourself?

My favorite fiction writer is Charles Dickens. I loved "Great Expectations" and "A tale of Two Cities". I also believe I have seen every version of "A Christmas Carole". Those are the biggest of his works that I've read.
