Wow-if I thought that fictional storie...Hi, Leona!<br /><br />Wow-if I thought that fictional stories were considered to be "lies" in the eyes of the Lord, I wouldn't be able to ever write another word!<br /><br />Thankfully, I've always viewed them as just a fun way of entertainment; a way of using our imaginations that link back to the original, nonfictional story-telling days of our ancestors. People love to hear stories about other people; it's as simple as that. And the juicier the story, the better they like it.<br /><br />My preference in stories is either a well-written mystery or a poignant family story with a moral to the story a happy ending. I could read stories like that all day long, if I had the time, of course.<br /><br />Until next time,<br />~Cynde<br /><a href="http://cyndes-got-the-write-stuff.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Cynde's Got The Write Stuff</a><br /><br />Don't forget to tell everyone about your "Guest Interview" on my blog, ok?Cynde L.

When, oh when, will my life slow down and will I have the energy remaining at the end of my day to sit at the computer without having my forehead land with a kerplunk on the keyboard? I can't even think of getting up any earlier than I do. There just wouldn't be a point in going to bed.<br /><br />I love this kind of encouragement. It's so much better than the "rah! rah! you can do it, girl!" It makes me WANT to so darn much!wispy willowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10194020052008879681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7920632640472244629.post-59583489436984546422009-07-09T13:56:18.330-05:002009-07-09T13:56:18.330-05:00there is so much variety in the human experience t...there is so much variety in the human experience that I doubt anything you write is a lie because someone somewhere has lived it. sounds fun.
