Huh, It's my 50th Blog

Didn't even realize that until I logged in. Ah well.

Well, I decided I wanted to write something, but I didn't know what. So I just kinda wrote and this is what came out:

“I mean really, Al. I just don’t think that a story about vampires who fend off a zombie invasion is appropriate for children between the ages three and seven.”

“How about Vikings then? The mysterious group from the north who travels south along rivers, using arrows to fend off the zombies and pick up any survivors. What small child wouldn’t want to be a Viking! Besides, you’re just the illustrator, what do you know?” Al tried again, he was a bit tired of writing about happiness and sunshine and little girls who lost their ways. When he was a small child he wanted to hear about heroes and adventure. Children stories really are directed more towards women.

“I’m more inclined to agree with Nero, It’s not about what the kids want to read, it’s about what the parents want their children to read. Just stick to the sole hero and damsel in distress types.” Jennifer, their editor and manager, lectured while pushing away from the table. This brainstorming session wasn’t going very well, “I know you just released a new story a month ago,” she accentuated this point by tossing said story on the table, “and your new one isn’t due for another few months, but could we at least agree on an idea today?”

Al looked at their story, this being the first time he’d seen the book in actual print, and laughed at the things he could pull out of his head. The cover of the children’s book read ‘Hubert the Porcupine’s Journey Home. Author: Alpha Paterson. Illustrator: Nero Conrad’ and had an interesting picture of an overly enthusiastic porcupine with bright orange baseball cap on it. Al stopped laughing and sneered, “Jennifer, I thought I told you not to put my full name on it.” He absolutely hated when people called him Alpha. His mother had it in her head that because his last name was so common, he needed a highly unusual first name. Sometimes he wondered about that woman.

Michelle suggests I go somewhere with this... I might, maybe, I have some plot in my head and I guess my mind will just kinda take me there.

I love the quote function for some reason. I'm also annoyed by the lack of indents in the blog.
