FYI, writers, apparently Walter Mosley has a new book about writing your novel in a year, and it's excerpted in this month's Oprah. It's a lot of, "No, really, just write every day. It'll be OK." but his style is engaging.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

I'll have to read it in the grocery line, because I refuse to give money to Oprah. Her and Disney, they've both become Evil Empires in my mind.

Walter Mosley's good, though. He has been somebody I've kept in mind a lot while I've been trying to change up the detective story..

As with all challenges, you are free to interpret as broadly as you wish.
And anyone else feel free to make another one.

I got my entry form for the MWA contest yesterday. That will be the first time somebody who's not a friend will see the whole thing. Feels like a big deal.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
That is a big deal, erika! Good luck!
