I overheard a woman ...Hope springs eternal, right?<br /><br />I overheard a woman the other day at the store saying, "I don't read books. Don't like them." I was flabbergasted. What in the world do you do if you don't write OR read?! Aren't you dead then?Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04021516647141651616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2988507102530771858.post-68837227711234435982012-09-03T18:22:36.337-07:002012-09-03T18:22:36.337-07:00You know, really, T, I think we're normal and ...You know, really, T, I think we're normal and the people whose brains are occupied only by themselves are the weird ones. :)<br /><br />Love that opening line.

Thanks, Marilyn, for letting me off the 'weird' hook!<br /><br />Yesterday when I should have been revising the ms I'm trying to sell, a completely new story inserted itself in my head--complete with opening hook: No one heard the first shot...<br /><br />In four hours I had the main characters, plot, conflict, and cliffhanger ending on my computer. <br /><br />Now that's out of the way, I can get back to work.<br /><br />Cheers...and happy writing!<br /><br />-TAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992792501646465680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2988507102530771858.post-36444812786141951542012-09-03T09:30:09.151-07:002012-09-03T09:30:09.151-07:00Interesting to hear, Winnie.

Made it hard in school, though, because when a teacher started talking, I started running stories in my mind. :)Marilynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04021516647141651616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2988507102530771858.post-79171381320411006602012-09-03T08:18:06.895-07:002012-09-03T08:18:06.895-07:00I've gotta say I have always loved reading sin...I've gotta say I have always loved reading since I was a kid and even toyed with the idea of being a writer. But stories don't seem to appear in my brain. So I do wonder how my favorite authors can come out with so many stores. I am truly amazed at their abilities.
