Glad you had a way to use it in a story. Sounds like good fun.Lilhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13680968217522258788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201492111840825361.post-48816082864634665852008-05-08T05:29:00.000-07:002008-05-08T05:29:00.000-07:00Truth is certainly stranger than fiction at times. I worked for a place where I was responsible for school age kids traveling abroad, and dealing with kids who would use their boarding passes as toilet paper b/c "they cldn't find anything else" really gave me some funny stories to tell!Gabrielahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14735959497731866485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201492111840825361.post-55452231641528838672008-05-08T03:25:00.000-07:002008-05-08T03:25:00.000-07:00I love reading about the inspiration behind the books.

How in your eyes would that be different from a romantic comedy? Or Chicklit?M.http://www.blogger.com/profile/07498466631016466048noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201492111840825361.post-22107699715889788922008-05-07T12:42:00.000-07:002008-05-07T12:42:00.000-07:00I never even considered that those stories were real ones. When I read News Blues those cracked me up, but it's even funnier knowing that really happened.Hollyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01182390014214738550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201492111840825361.post-50597322404783668152008-05-07T10:37:00.001-07:002008-05-07T10:37:00.001-07:00I would love to win a copy of News Blues but if not I've got it marked in my must read list!ChristinaAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09596595529892292201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6201492111840825361.post-1050693776842103612008-05-07T10:37:00.000-07:002008-05-07T10:37:00.000-07:00I love the concept of this story!! I work in a TV station too (although on the fringes, not in the thick of things like you), and boy, the things I've seen and heard sometimes... If there's one station in the area that would air that kind of news, it would be us. Your novel sounds lovely and the characters look interesting. You sold Jamie to me with "motorcycle riding bad boy" :-D. I'll make sure to look for News Blues!<BR/>Mary M.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
