Kate: The first tenet for success in writing is to write what you know, Danae.
Danae: Well that sounds easy. Let's see...umm...ah-ha...my ordeal with stinky, booger-brained boys.
Kate: Oh, I love the smell of a pulitzer in the morning...
And how is Kate suddenly such an expert on this topic? Where has she been published? -I’m beginning to like Danae much more than I did before. And Kate much less.
I inhale books of all kinds, and I’m very familiar with a number of different genres. Despite that, the only things I’ve ever gotten published have been (free) ‘local color’ articles in weekly newspapers.
Loving to read, and reading a lot, doesn’t equal getting published…
Going to need to exercise a bit of artistic license.Reality is going to be a pretty dull read unless the aliens and time travel are part of the story. And that would make the booger brain seem smart, unless complications come from his mucking about.
Ah, at last a subject both sisters know. By-da-way, do they have a magic chair/couch? Amidst the contemplation and brain storming of Danae it changes. Or did Jeffry have anything to do with that?
I think that the sofa-chair phenom denotes the passage of time. It took awhile for Danae to come up with such a brilliant idea, during which time the sisters changed their positions.
Danae, of course, doesn’t pick up well on sarcasm. Or is she just too much in her own world? Have to love Kate and her approach to Danae. Naturally she knows Danae best.Chill out guys. None of the characters are real — its a comic.Having fun with the comments Wiley? Going to write a book about them? Its amazing how many literary experts are attracted to your comic.
Re, Andre Norton – one of my most favourite sci fi authors of all time. I have loads of her books – anyone is welcome to borrow, as long as you give it back when done.
I think I always knew she was a she, but I believe when she first began writing, woman often disguised their femininity. RA McAvoy, CJ Cherryh to name a few. Silly early 20th century sexism.

I think I prefer the stories about how a dinosaur ate your homework, Danae.

If you have to know what you write about, how did Jim Bishop get to be a success?

Some of this information may still be classified, Danae!

That’s the same theme that Taylor Swift used when she started writing songs.

Danae will borrow Kate’s book, and then “borrow” everything that’s in there and try to pass it off as her own writing……….

Re: the couch/chair thing. Danae has also moved from Kate’s left to her right. It doesn’t follow (i.e., non sequitur).

To say nothing of George Sand, George Elliot, etc. At least by the 20th century they could come up with something besides George.

Why do I get the feeling that we are witness to the birth of a Romance Novel Writer?

I’ll cop to stinky, but booger-brained is where I draw the line.

BrassOrchid: Never assume anything relating to stage or pen names have anything relating to truth. You could also include Alice Cooper.
