A: Listen to this...
Z: (Looks up over his reading
glasses)
A: "Love is stronger than
death even though it can't stop death from happening, but no matter how hard
death tries it can't separate people from love. It can't take away our memories
either. In the end, life is stronger than death." It's by someone unknown
but it's so profound.
Z: (Puts his e-reader down,
wondering if Ang is in one of her rare serious moods) And why are we obsessed
with death today?
A: Is life truly stronger than
death?
Z: Well, as the author says, it
can't take away our love, and love I believe is the strongest emotion. To quote
Vincent Van Gogh. "Love many things, for therein lies the true strength,
and whosoever loves much performs much, and can accomplish much, and what is
done in love is done well."
A: (Suddenly blurts) We're
murderers....(Gets teary eyed)
Z: (Blinks - now unsure of what
mood she possess) Huh?
A: We kill all the time.
Z: And where was I when all
this killing was going on?
A: (Does the double eye-roll)
Welllll, right here, of course, we usually don't kill off anyone unless the
other agrees to it.
Z: (Wonders if he can quietly
sneak off and call 911, psychiatric unit, stat!) Surrreee...right...of
course.... You just stay calm. Want tea? Chocolate?
A: No.
Z: (Pops up out of his chair,
and stares down at her) That's it, what in duck soup are you talking about, or
have you finally flipped your wig.
A: Hey! I don't like duck soup,
and I certainly don't own a wig. Never owned a wig. (Thinks) Well, there was
that one time when hubby and I....
Z: (Slices his hand through the
air) Angelica!
A: I digress.
Z: Ya think!
A: Oh! (Looks enlightening)
You're not following my train of thought.
Z: Nowwww, we're talking about
trains???
A: (Gives him the LOOK, yup
that you-gotta-be kiddin'-me look backed by a are-you-nuts) I was talking about
how we kill off characters without consideration.
Z: (Thinks: 911...yup...Cocoa
Puffs Looney) We consider. We talk it through. We don't just wake up one day
and say, that's it, Mong has to go.
A: Hmmmm I don't think we
killed off Mong.
Z: Didn't we?
A: Well, I'm not telling, we'll
give away the ending to SNAKE DANCE if I do.
Z: Alright then, I know we
really analyzed the plot and storyline before slaying Oväder from STEEL
EMBRACE.
A: Hmmmm I don't think we
killed off Oväder.
Z: Didn't we?
A: Well, I'm not telling, we'll
give away the....
Z: Ending....
A: (Nods)
Z: Then, me literary bud in
crime, do you really think we should have this conversation right here and
now...(Looks out at the readers from the computer screen)
A: (You can do that)
Z: (We're fiction writers we
can do anything)
A: (Pouts) My point exactly,
we're murderers!
Z: (Signs and blocks readers
from viewing their office)
Alas, a moment in the lives of
two writers before Zi had his morning coffee and Ang had her morning muffin.
After all, according to Ang, a mind simply can't function without sugar and
cream. And, in some strange way, that really does make sense.
Any thoughts?We'd love to hear from anyone interested in what we do. Anyone who writes us at writingteamcw@yahoo.com (Write - Blog Dawn - in subject line) and leaves an s-mail address, we will send you a free ebook (choose erotic or romantic thriller) and add you to any future mailings.
