stgulikLast week when we were down to our last $50, I did a very short but very strategic grocery shopping. Now that we're flush, we still have the remains from my last trip. Am wondering how long we could really go without another trip to the store.
I think we could get along on spaghetti noodles and cans of sauce and green beans for some time. But without coffee and toilet paper? Let's not get crazy.
Oh, well. I'm off to see, and be fed by, my mother today. So the refrigerator situation will be somebody else's problem.
Found this yesterday on Reddit's writing forum: How to write a scene in 11 steps. Now, I am in no way endorsing the steps, nor am I saying you must take the internet's advice on writing scenes. Please do not take offense in your comments. I just got a lot of brain energy out of the exercise, and I thought you might, too.
Thinking back on the scene I told you I was trying to write, the one with the uncooperative secondary character, it may be time to show some tough love.
