I Sense a Plot Bunny
So I was watching Fiddler on the Roof (excellent movie btw) and I made the comment that Tzeitel sounds like Sidle, as in Sara Sidle from CSI. My mother jokingly said something along the lines of, "hey, Sara's a Hebrew name. Maybe she's secretly Jewish." My muse liked the idea and is now dragging Sara kicking and screaming into my world.

Writer's Block: Little White Lies
I honestly don't believe there's such a thing as a harmless lie. It's a religious as well as a practical thing to me. I think that in lying to avoid hurting someone's feelings can lead to worse problems in the future. Suppose you're friend is a writer. She asks you what you think of a piece of her writing.

Whooot! First Entry!
Hi y'all who are actually reading this. My mom's at church and my brother and dad are asleep right now. Which means I have no one to annoy so I'm on here. You should be flattered. No? Fine then. So I'm busy procrastinating on my story. Someone needs to hit me upside the head or I'll never finish it. Any volunteers? A virtual slap should work. I ( Read more... )
