"Do this... Unless you're doing this..."

I need to apologize for nearly every post I've put on here where I say one thing and then say "unless it's like this..." I realize that might be getting kind of annoying but that is only because there are so many possibilities and I don't want to be discouraging you from writing things your way.  That is how a lot of stories are written: going against the grain, things that don't normally happen (even in a story), just happening.
