The Internet is full of Things: For those that don't have the luxury to play Flash Focus every day, practice focusing on these double vision photos. I promise they will make you squint.
Phew, glad to have reached a draft with only a few words to spare for the submission limit. Going to let it sit overnight and will give it a fresh read tomorrow night. I know there's one spot in particular that could use some tweaking. By that, I mean cutting erroneous crap.
And then once this is all out of my headspace I can return to the Novel.

Those double vision photos are sick!
Now that I'm dizzy from looking at those photos.....the trick appears to be to move your head while trying to focus.
And my grandfather's sister was named Maude. His name was Claud.
Yes, those pictures make me dizzy!
