Pondering

Did you ever have a story that had existed in your head for so long, possibly because you had to write six seven challenge stories first, and became so vivid in your mind that it felt almost impossible to get out in words?

Did you ever think about how language -- spoken, written -- is an interface between our brains? That when I write a story, that's my interface from my brain to yours? If reading about interface design could make you a better writer?

Did you know that when people find something attractive and aesthetically pleasing, they also perceive it as working better and being easier to use than if it were functional but plain? And that it works the same way with people?

What do you think would happen if a member of the Royal Family was a wizard? If Ed and Al met up with Nicolas Flamel and got the Philosopher's Stone off him? If Thor was cheating on Jack with Maybourne?

Did you ever want to smack me for asking too many questions?
