Lots of Words

Today I surpassed my 1250 word goal. I did the same yesterday. I am a writing fiend. And all of it dialogue!

Yep! Lots of Words. The burning question is, are they any good?

I would like someone to invent a word-o-meter that I can stick into my scene to see if it is well and truly done or whether I am about to ingest a hefty dose of literary bacteria.

Any scientists out there willing to take on the challenge?

    Dear Dumpy Grace:

    I love you and your ability with words. Lots and lots of words. Good words -- violent and sexy though some of them may be.

    I stand in awe of your planning and perseverance 'cause I am stuck.

    If you hear of a good word-o-meter, please let me know. I'll buy in.

    Your bud,
    Phyllis

    Stuck? Who knew?! I'm lovin' your blog entries! I was wondering if they might be snippets of a memoir? Beautiful writing as always.

    Your friend, Dumpy Grace

    p.s at least you can run. I can barely heave myself through Jane Fonda's new workout videos and they're designed for the elderly. Sheesh.

    Dear Dumpy Grace:

    "Heaving" is a very good word to describe trying to exercise. Just so you know, my marathoner friend thinks I should give it another try. I see her at work. I can't avoid her. There could be trouble in store.

    Maybe I should just write blogs and forget the %^&* book. It's a thought.
