Like I said, I wrote it late at night & maybe I WAS half asleep. Maybe I should try that more often. Writing while I'm fully cognizant is great for articles but fiction works better for me when I'm tired.Susan Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05076064230626935030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-497169516087803680.post-38768508841162649402010-07-20T21:45:24.687-04:002010-07-20T21:45:24.687-04:00Isn't it great to find out that folks is just ...Isn't it great to find out that folks is just folks.

I'm a tee shirts and shorts kind of gal & people talk freely in front of me. When I tell them I write for a magazine I can see their expression change to "Uh oh. What did I just say?"

...Eric, you think maybe there's a sequel here?<br /><br />Kemari, I can think of so many times when I run into a person who normally wears a uniform and without it I can't place them. It's sad that our identity gets tangled up in just one aspect of our lives.<br /><br />Deanna, I was actually thinking of you when I wrote the part about the peaches. It didn't start out that way. This was one of those late night pieces. I had no idea where it was going to go but when the peaches appeared, so did you. And, at the end, I almost changed them to strawberries!Susan Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05076064230626935030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-497169516087803680.post-18665011742028978232010-07-16T04:52:23.619-04:002010-07-16T04:52:23.619-04:00Absolute perfect example of "don't judge ...Absolute perfect example of "don't judge a book by its cover" Susan. Very well told, believable dialogue. <br /><br />Peaches just happens to be my second favorite food, strawberries being the first, and they both have to be from South Carolina. :)Deanna Schrayerhttp://theothersideofdeanna.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-497169516087803680.post-2702792312913689732010-07-16T02:46:35.049-04:002010-07-16T02:46:35.049-04:00I absolutely love this.
