SMACKED UPSIDE THE HEAD
...WITH A NEW STORY IDEA.

Right while my hands are sticky from peeling potatoes, of which I have 8 more to peel and to cook and mash and have done in 45 minutes.

Right while I'm supposed to be focusing on FINISHING MY BLASTED CURRENT NOVEL THIS WEEKEND.

Right when a gazillion other good ideas are in line to be worked on next.

BUT THIS IS SUCH A POWERFUL IDEA.


It came out of listening to that blasted song again (and again) while peeling potatoes.

I think it's time to move on to the next song on the playlist now, Jessie.

(It wasn't going to be on repeat play until the idea struck me TOTALLY OUT OF THE BLUE and then I had to keep listening to it over and over, y'see....)

(I don't even know the story that goes with that song in the game)...my story has nothing to do with that. It probably wouldn't be obviously connected, though the lyrics would make sense for it.)


(Arghhhhh I hate it when life gets in the way of story ideas. Or maybe when story ideas get in the way of the life.)




TIME TO MASH SOME POTATOES.

Even though I haven't written any books, I know the feeling >_<

Those potatoes do sound yummy though.
