Fiction Friday Post for August 21st, 2009
Oh, woe is me! It’s been so bloody long since I’ve posted on one of my favorite online writing exercises. I sporadically participate in this exercise and there are always so many wonderful posts.

Broderick MacDougal – IN COLOR!
I had the pleasure of meeting a profound artist at the Romantic Times Book Lover’s Convention by the name of Robert Quill. Charming, witty, talented and downright hilarious, Robert was a joy to meet and converse with. I loved hearing his voice – a kind of cross between rogue and tv announcer.
