On Writing II




Careful Or You'Ll End Up In My Novel Shirt
TheT-shirt above from  www.signals.com proudly states, "Careful, you'll end up in my novel"   isn't terribly far from the truth.  More accurately, I think threads of people we observe, meet and know may end up in stories and novels than the actual person.  When I look at people or spend time 'people watching,'  I enjoy the pastime of placing them in a story or reimagining them in another time period, place and costume. 

I am surprised when friends confess that they do not have stories in their heads running 24/7.  I have more stories to write than lifetimes to live.
