I thought something was wrong…cause….nothing was wrong. Does that make sense?
Yeah.
Sorry.
I’ve never had so many cool people allow me to entertain them like this, each and every week, and I keep expecting something bad to happen and it just…doesn’t.
Hmm.
QUESTIONS:
My mind is in such a weird place. They just keep coming up. While I’m walking, talking, trying to write…and it’s starting to overwhelm me. It’s crazy. SO crazy.
Here are seven of them that hit me as I was doing coffee this morning:
If a character eats their own backstory for breakfast, does that make their plot gluten-free?
If a villain only thinks about monologuing but never does, is that considered inner dialogue or heroic mercy?
Why do heroes never have to stop for a wee during an epic chase scene—does magic cure bladder urgency?
If you write a romance between two punctuation marks, which ones would be forbidden lovers? (I suspect semicolon and ellipsis are scandalous.)
Can a narrator get arrested for narrating a crime in progress — or is that a fictional loophole?
If you spill a metaphor on a simile, does that stain come out in the wash?
Why do wizards always have beards, and what happens if they try to grow sideburns instead — would the spells explode?
I HAVE NO ANSWERS.
Ah, well. It’s the beginning of the week. Maybe something will get solved.
Oh, hey, I’d appreciate your feedback about the T-Shirt idea.
Okay, I’ll leave you alone mow.
Love you tons. Have a great week.
You’ve got this.
You are MORE than you THINK you are!
Until Next Time,
