He and She were discussing challenges that She is facing with her next novel …
She: “My characters are not having a relationship!“
He: “Oh really?”
She: “They’re having parallel lives …”
He: “Fictions within a fiction?”
She: “Parallel li-V-es, dear.”
He: “So you’re moving into reality TV?”
She: “I’m writing a romance! And how can you have a romance unless you can get your characters into a relationship?“
He: “It’s too big. Try something smaller.”
She: “Like what? A lunch date?“
He: “A relationboat. If they can’t afford a relationship, maybe a boat’s within their budget. And there wouldn’t be enough room for them to play ‘that side’s yours, this side’s mine’.”
She: “I suppose I could have them paddling a canoe.”
He: “A kayak.”
She: “A single seater! Now that would bring them together!”
He: “So would a blender*. But then you might have a little bit of trouble distinguishing your characters.”
She: “But the whole point of romance is for two to become one!”
He: “Yeah, but landing both of them in the soup is probably not the most profitable way to accomplish this.”
She: “Sometimes I wish I had a bit more trouble distinguishing your character! You’re a nut!“
He: “Thank you.”
She: “[…] Uh …”
He: “At long last, my botany degree is good for something!”
* It’s Jessie‘s fault for dragging the blender into this.
Lol funny
I enjoy two kayaks “wavingâ€
with sharks circling
A sunset
A turtle and man o war
Breezes
And holding hands
Blending.
LOL. You’re both nuts in your own minds.
