Sasha was most fortunate. Her genes meant she would live until aged 116. For a few months she would be the oldest person in the world. It wasn’t just her genes that gave her longevity; it was her lifestyle. Hers was a healthy and stress-free existence.
How do I know all this, I hear you ask? Well, I am a writer and therefore omnipotent. I created Sasha. I know she has the genes and the way of life to live until she’s 116. So you can put that in your pipe and smoke it.
It was therefore most unfortunate when, at the age of 23, she was run over by a truck.

Being an assiduous reader of the omnipotent author, I knew it to the depths of my bones. I shall wait for the future servings.

LOL – you continue to read me like a book! I do hope that a certain novel-writer I know is making some progress…?

And then, I got to thinking what it would be called if there were 4 (or more) panels. So, my education continues: ” A polyptych (/ˈpɒlɪptɪk/ POL-ip-tik; Greek: poly- “many” and ptychē “fold”) is a painting (usually panel painting) which is divided into sections, or panels. Specifically, a “diptych” is a two-part work of art; a “triptych” is a three-part work; a tetraptych or quadriptych has four parts; pentaptych five; hexaptych six; heptaptych (or septych in Latin) seven; and octaptych eight parts.”
Mind you, I have already forgotten the terms for more than 3 panels.

Imagine if I were an octaptych and you a heptaptych! What fun! (I think I feel a song coming on!)
