a better mousetrap.......

ok, so the mm has readers of exquisite taste.......the following was part of an email.....

Hi Kathy,
I was thinking about your plot problem if you lose the Oprah idea...(who knows why one's mind latches onto things?). Anyway, I was thinking that if your protagonist wins the lottery (or do two people win the lottery together or does the whole cafe staff split the pot...) that it allows the introduction of a writer character who wants to interview them to do either a movie script or a sit-com/drama pilot This allows stories to be told in sequence through multiple meetings, offers your characters opportunities to mull over what is made public vs. what is part of private life and keeps you from having to tell the whole thing within a one-time interview.

Has anyone written an e-mail correspondence novel yet? (Like the epistolary form, but short and ungrammatical.) Anyway, I have no ambitions to write anything more than an occasional note or letter, so more power to you.


I really wish that i had thought of that story line myself..............
