Favorite Book Dialogue:
"Did you need plastic ware?" He asked.
I shrugged.
"Because," He went on, and I fought the urge to squirm, "it's so funny, because I need plastic ware. Badly."
"Can we go inside, please?" I asked, slamming the trunk shut. "It's hot out here."
He looked at the bag again, then at me. And then, slowly, the smile I knew and dreaded crept across his face. "You bought me plastic ware," He said, "Didn't you?"
"No," I growled, picking at my license plate.
"You did!" He hooted, laughing out loud. "You bought me some forks. And knives. And spoons. Because-"
"No," I said loudly.
"-you love me!" He grinned, as if he'd solved the puzzler for all time, as I felt a flush creep across my face. Stupid Lissa. I could have killed her.
"It was on sale," I told him again, as if this was some kind of an excuse.
"You love me," he said simply, taking the bag and adding it to the others.
"Only seven bucks," I added, but he was already walking away, so sure of himself. "It was on clearance, for God's sake."
"Love me," he called out over his shoulder, in a singsong voice. "You. Love. Me."

Favorite Movie Dialogue:
Tyler Durden: [pointing at an emergency instruction manual on a plane] You know why they put oxygen masks on planes?
Narrator: So you can breathe.
Tyler Durden: Oxygen gets you high. In a catastrophic emergency, you're taking giant panicked breaths. Suddenly you become euphoric, docile. You accept your fate. It's all right here. Emergency water landing - 600 miles an hour. Blank faces, calm as Hindu cows.
Narrator: That's, um... That's an interesting theory.

"You own everything that happened to you. Tell your stories. If people wanted you to write warmly about them, they should've behave better."

Favorite Lyrics:
And after the storm,
I run and run as the rains come
And I look up, I look up,
on my knees and out of luck,
I look up.
Night has always pushed up day
You must know life to see decay
But I won't rot, I won't rot
Not this mind and not this heart,
I won't rot.
And I took you by the hand
And we stood tall,
And remembered our own land,
What we lived for.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
And now I cling to what I knew
I saw exactly what was true
But oh no more.
That's why I hold,
That's why I hold with all I have.
That's why I hold.
And I won't die alone and be left there.
Well I guess I'll just go home,
Oh God knows where.
Because death is just so full and man so small.
Well I'm scared of what's behind and what's before.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.

This will take you to all my story photos. You have to sign in, otherwise it's private. This is where I have all my book covers, character pictures, etc. It will grow every week. Maybe you guys can send some photos my way and I can add them. Maybe you have your own image of the characters, or your own version of a book cover. Maybe you made a collage. I'd be delighted to receive anything. Just send it to my email, below.

I posted the cover for Restless Nights on there and at the moment I really like it. Check it out.
Important News:
I'm not dead. I figured that was somewhat important. I am, however, having technical difficulties. The laptop that holds Let It Happen crashed. It's okay though because the computer is backed up on to a hard drive, but I need to get the laptop fixed first.
For all those that are upset (yes, I've gotten several hate emails), I'm incredibly sorry.
Which leads me to my next point: I've added a poll to my profile, and the results will pretty much determine which story I should continue with first. I'd really like to finish Let It Happen first, so I don't keep going back and forth between the two. However, my inability to continue with Let It Happen has encouraged me to write more of Restless Nights. That's because it's a write-as-I-go story and not an edit.
That news was actually important, so hopefully you read it.
