C.: Well, d.c. is editing one of his manuscripts, so he’s not available to write the blog today. Hmm… maybe I should follow his example and edit my manuscript-or at least finish writing it. I’ll do that, right after I take a cat nap.
Two hours later…
T.: What are you doing, Cal.E.,
C.: Well, Tucker Tucker Two, a.k.a. the Cat fighter Formerly Known As The Tuxedo (who really needs a shorter nick name) Now simply Known As T Because Triple T Was Already Taken, Holder of five heavy weight cat fighting Championship belts , and soon to be the middle weight division champion in cat fighting, my third husband and love of my life, I'm writing a book.
T..: can I help?
C.: Yes, that would be sell. Since you're a better typist than me, I'll dictate what I want to write to you.
.
C.: Let’s see, where to start. d.c. says that he writes the end first, then the beginning, and then the middle of the manuscript. That way, he knows what he’s aiming to say, but it makes more sense to me to start at the beginning. I’ll do that, starting with the title, right after another cat nap. You can join me if you want, T,'
T.: I'm good. Just come get me out of my home gym when you need something typed.
One hour later….
C.: T., I have a working title think. d.c. says to write it and see how it feels. I can always change it later, so here goes: THE WORST. DAY. EVER.
By Calculating Einstein Katt.
Well, that was exhausting. I need another quick cat nap.
Thirty minutes later....
It was the worst. Day. Ever. for me, Calculating Einstein Katt.
Well, I’ve written the lead sentence, so I’m cooking now. I should go ahead and write some more while I’m hot. d.c. says that the best time to write something is when it comes to your mind. Then, edit later, so here goes.
I was kicked off my planet, which made it the worst. Day. Ever for me, Calculating Einstein Katt.
C.: Well, I have the first paragraph written, so let me read it back. Mhmm, Mhmnn. That really stinks on ice. I'll just let my Amish shredder, Tome the Tabby shred it. He loves to shred paper.
d.c. is correct. Writing a book is HAAARD!!
After that, I'm exhausted, so I suppose that's all the time we have for today, folks. Please join us tomorrow for another episode of Cal.e.'s Korner.
