It happens to me all the time, I have a story, I start to write, and the characters develope and change the flipping story.
*Every line that I write* *I try to get it right* *make the characters appear* *as they tell me* *they are.* *So much thats left aside* *you cannot stay all night* *theres another chapter* *waiting in the wings.* *How the hell amI to know* *what the story is about* *you characters keep changing* *what you are* *who your playing.* *How can I care about PDF* *or pixels for the cover* *when I have these jerks for actors* *who will not listen* *to the writer.*
