• The Painting of Most Importance (Short Story)
    4 replies, posted
So this little story came up to my head a while ago at school, but I never bothered to post it. People say it's pretty good but I could really use the criticism of Facepunch, here goes: There was once a Painting. What was the Painting about, what was drawn on it, is not important. The Painting was 200 years old but who drew it, is not important. It was once found in an apartment, between a thin space in a wall. How it got there, is not important. The incident, of course, included a part where there would later be made a hole in the wall, large enough to find the Panting hanging on a nail. The Painting was later sold by the Owner to a very Rich Business Man, who had a hobby of collecting very old arts. The money, helped the Finder of the Painting to pay for the repairs of the wall and pay his bills, which were long over-due. The Business Man hanged the Painting in the middle of his office, there the Painting witnessed discussion, deals, secrets, romance, fights and even the death of it's Rich Owner. Then, months after the Rich Owner's death, the Painting was presented as a piece of evidence, for what reason, is not important. After all that, the Painting was then sealed away. Where, is not important. When and who will uncover it, is not important. In my opinion, this seems mediocre at most, but what does FP think?
why do you capitalize random nouns? [editline]4th February 2012[/editline] "a Painting.", "a very rich Business Man."

"is not important" is repeated six times. Funny considering the title is called "The Painting of Most Importance"
