Sorry, haven't had much to say.

I'm a writer and I've drawn a blank. Talk about trouble. What do you do when this happens? I've been at a loss for words for about a week now. Okay, it all stems from behind-the-scenes stuff. It's hard to get into writing when everything seems strained in your life. I did get a new editor over the weekend and she seems super nice--that's one good thing.

Right now, Kent is bugging me to death. "Why am I sitting in this car? You know I'm all hot and bothered from Cadence, and need a cold shower. You seem damned content to leave me here in pain."
"Sorry," I tell him, "but I need some motivation, and can't find any.
"Aren't I motivation enough," he asks, his lips curling into a grin. "I'll let you watch me take a shower."
Well, that would be exciting.
"What, that's not enough incentive? How about I promise to give you a show."
See what I have to put up with. The man in a pain--a really thorn in the backside. He's just lucky he's as cute as he is, otherwise I'd have to hit him.
"Come on," he whined. "I want to get into the action. That is what you write, right? Hell, Thorn and Ava got their adventure in the Bayou. Yancy and Mauve got shot at, at the airport. When is it going to be my turn."
I looked at him as if he'd lost his mind. "But you were shot in Mauvelous, remember?"
"True, but I want the focus on me this time. I don't want to be just a bit player. Its my turn to be the hero, to show Cadence why I'm a better man than Yancy."
I shook my head and wondered why I hadn't chosen someone else to be my male character.
As if he'd read my mind, he turns and stalks off. "See if I ever come out of the car now."

He's pissed, but he'll get over it.

Anyway, if you want to help. Give me a list of words to use in my next scene, and if it works, I'll post some of it to my next blog.

Have a nice day...the weather here is nasty and is only supposed to get worse as the day unfolds. Looking forward to it. NOT!
