If you’re still not sure exactly what your gifts are and how to share them with the world, take heart—you’re about to get a big hint.”</i> Yeah, they tossed that at me, too. I sure hope it isn't designing web sites -- all my clients have gone nuts and want major revisions, and guess who's going out of town for the weekend? Hope this means about to commit serious novel plotting... “Your talents are unique—and your ways of expressing them are even more so.

So much for the deathbed confession. *g* Rene - From what I understand some guy in prison who is on his deathbed told authorities recently that he helped bury Hoffa on this farm in Michigan.

I'm pure pantster. I've tried outlining and it didn't work. Why are they wasting money looking for Hoffa? Should they still be looking for Elvis? Plot? :shock: No habla plot. I’m pure pantster.

Why are they wasting money looking for Hoffa? Should they still be looking for Elvis?

That line could work for a lot of people. :) Mandy - I'm slowly learning how to do this, but my mind tends to wander off and leave me wondering what happens next. Or, worse, I start getting bored. Ack! :confused68: Crystal - We really are twins! LOL! As for those talents, I'm still waiting for the Big Hint. :whistle: Shelley - LOL! That line could work for a lot of people. :)

If I know what goes here and here I can do all the cool stuff like foreshadowing. Even if the plot morphs in the writing it still helps. I'd love to see you publish.

Hee. I once saw a sitcom in which a character was worried that her son was late for dinner.

Friend: “He’s only 15 minutes late.”
Mother: “At one point, so was Jimmy Hoffa!”

One day I am going to steal that line, although I’ll probably subsitute Bill Barilko for Jimmy Hoffa.
