Girls In the Attic

Girls In the Attic Who knew they wrote books?

11/26/2016

the Girls In The Attic have been quiet and not at all productive I guess the brains available are resting. We find it of interest that many people think we are a restaurant or a book store. Sadly no. It's just us trying to be imaginative and clever and interesting and popular and have great hair and good skin. That's it until something comes skittering about in our brains. Have you heard the story about...........? See. There is nothing there, but hang in with us you never know!!!!(Never use an exclaimer when you are writing so you now know those Girls are really losing it!!!!

Just finished outline for what I think is a book I think I might write...I have two in the making and now hate all the people in them that's not a good thing. So that's a wrap. This one has some promise the title is " ---30---" Wish me luck and spark of imagination every now and then.

We are not a restaurant! We don't own a restaurant and if we did we wouldn't call it Girls In The Attic. Girls in the attic are those pesky thoughts that skip around in the attic of your brain. So because we are not totally brainless we take those pesky thoughts and write books. No fast food involved except what we get to stoke our always ready for a bit of unhealthy food and rush out to go

I have just been advised that my super crush of age 14-15 died about three years ago.I have thought of him often over the years but never saw him after that one year. I am now age 81 and the thought of George Exner a grad student at Union College in Schenectady Niew York still brings to my lips those two words we teen age girls would utter at the sight of the man of their dreams. "HUBBA HUBBA!" Mr. Exner was our student teacher in our literature class. When he left school I with my friend Betty would follow him to the tall iron gates of the college just a few blocks away from our dreaded Nott Terrace High School. He would close the gates without looking back and I would stand very still and watch him walk the path until he turned and walked up the steps to his fraternity house. Of course, he never looked back. I look back now and think what a pleasure that great crush was and how he made every word we had to read better than the last.

I recently learned what an emoji is. Just in time to note that the term was added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 2015. Now I can totally accept this as the largest most important discovery since white bread. (If you have read this far just reading those last few words tells you how old I am. You don't need an emoji. Now that I am up to date on this I realize what we did back the day was to create stick figures. Those I can understand. A note here on writing without an emoji in reach. I just could not get along with those characters in "New Coat of Paint" so they are in the trash. I am now crazy in love with the characters in THE CIRCLE so keep on hanging out with us maybe there is an emoji in our lives after all.

FB is not a waste of time when it is for one's own self interest ...in my case to bring up books in the writing. Or A book as the case truly is. I have a character doing something I would never ever ever do not ever, but now I am just to see how it works. First of all it takes a lot of time BUT second of all it is truly of interest. I can't tell you what it is, but if we all live long enough I promise you will enjoy reading about the character who does it. Meanwhile, I ate something at a restaurant that tasted like turpentine and continued to eat it which ended up with very unattractive results tummy wise, My advice to you loyal friends and readers if something tastes like turpentine don't think it is a new sophisticated flavor and continue eating whatever it is. I leave you with these wise words. Selah
ps forget I promised to be a -30-

My new coat of paint has brought to my attention that FB is pretty much a waste of time. So this will be -30- My subject: THE KARDASHIANS, I don't watch the shows but I follow with interest their enterprises and they are many and all successful. So, these are not untalented lazy women they are terrific at what they do and work hard at it. This new coat of paint makes me wonder why all those neighbors of a Kardashian party have been so furious over the firework thing that lasted a mere eight minutes and startled and woke up, evidently, entire neighborhoods at midnight putting them into a rage. Strange to me all those over sensitive neighbors would not just pop up and watch the fireworks out over the ocean and enjoy! And so it is, that my final GirlsInTheAttic posting is to wish the Kardashian Women all the best at whatever they do, I don't quite understand it all, but as long as they do nothing else matters. Man, Oh Man! ONBEINGOFANAGE ARE THEY EVER GOING TO HAVE A GREAT TIME? YES THEY ARE! And I hope if anyone ONBEINGOFANAGE reads this entry, YOU do too. With Love, Meg and all the Ladies of Lavender Landing.

By the pool looking up at the sky hoping for words to fall down on me one by one each one more brilliant and meaningful than the other. And mourning the Good Year Blimp that we know and love so well as it is put to rest in peace, piece by piece. How can this be? My mind has been under a bit of a cloud this past week but it has a new coat of paint and it feels much better.

It's Simple As A Coat Of Paint and this is a -30-!!!!!
Wait for it!

SIMPLE AS A COAT OF PAINT

One of the main characters is in an emotional panic. "What happens when I admit to myself that I have no one who loves me?"
