Or is that what they say about baked goods? Oh, here’s what you can do! Grab a baked good while you read my featured essay, “The Writer’s Lot.” Now, we’re all happy-wappy.
And when you finish reading, I hope you’ll have time to peruse the rest of this week’s edition of WritersNewsWeekly. I’m sure you’ll find some interesting and useful writing information, tips, and news. You might want to come back, every Wednesday or Thursday, to get the freshest news available.
But I’d go easy on that baked goods habit. You know what they say: A baked good in the hand is worth 1200 calories on the hips. Or maybe that’s just me.
(Disclaimer: No family members were harmed in the writing of “The Writer’s Lot,” and especially not The Beneficent Mr. Hall. Any resemblance to any characters living in the Hall House is strictly coincidental and totally, um, random.)
Cathy, that was hilarious! My husband and I used to share an office, too, but the experience was nowhere near as funny as what you wrote! 🙂
Hey Cathy,You are sooo funny. I love the lunch-time humor.Donnahttp://donnasbookpub.blogspot.com
Cathy, so funny!I can relate. No matter what I write, whether he walks in and talks to me or goes right for the TV, I usually find his or Arnold Schwarzenegger's words embedded within my manuscript.Congratulations!
Aw, thanks, y'all! A humor writer is only as good as her material to work with…and I've got a lot to work with in the Beneficent Mr. Hall.I mean that in a nice way. 🙂
Cathy, gosh I've been away from blogs for what just felt like a day or so, and I've missed all kinds of stuff on yours!! I'll have to keep on reading, and then leave the proper comments…probably tomorrow!! 😀
I've had that kind of week, Becky-can't seem to get caught up on anything!I'm gonna blame the heat. 🙂
Great writing! I don't work at home but the spouse does. Maybe that's why we only get on each others nerves on the weekends.
HAHAHAHA! Yeah, I usually load up on my nerve medicine on the weekends.(Thanks for the kind words!)
HA! Great piece! I keep telling my hubby we should move our offices together into the spare bedroom so we can keep each other company and be efficient with our space. Now, well…not sounding like such a great idea!
Ah, the old "it'll be more efficient if we're working out of the same office" argument.Run, Lisa, run! 🙂
Cathy…loved it! I laughed out loud more than once!! I could see my husband in so much of this! Have you been spying on us??!! 😀
You should close your blinds, Becky!(Glad you enjoyed it!)
