Today is Eat What You Want Day, Twilight Zone Day, and the birthday of: Irving Berlin, Mari Sandoz, Stanley Elkin, Rose Auslander, Camilo Jose Cela, Francisco Umbral

Tip: Before stopping for the day, ask yourself a question about tomorrow’s scenes. (What is the character feeling at this point? How are they going to get out of this mess?) Write it down and sleep on it. You might be surprised what your brain comes up with overnight.

Thought: “If you would not be forgotten, as soon as you are dead and rotten, either write things worth reading or do things worth the writing.” –  Benjamin Franklin

Teaser: You’ve gone to see a psychic who will answer your deepest question. What do you ask?
