Little Words
My brain hurts.
My eyes have assaulted it with a pair of garden shears, and on top of that, they inserted a lobster directly into my cerebral cortex.
Translation: I spent a good few hours rushing through my ms to get together an overview. The point of this exercise, aside from turning my brains into soft noodles, was to give me the chance to step back and think about the purpose of each scene in terms of the whole story.
I didn't mean for the writing to look so small, or to have the word 'Danny' appear so often, but here it is in techicolour glory:
In other news: while writing the novel, whenever I thought of a catchphrase I snuck it away into a secret file, with the hope of using it ... someday.
* Peter Corris goes clubbing with Janet Evanovich.
* Danny Hawaii wants to be a PI. Only his lack of ability is stopping him.
* Toilet training can be fun. So can training to become a PI.
Try making up your own and send them to me. If I like them, I'll remember you, and I'll send you a copy of the novel when it comes out. I promise.
Danny Hawaii. Loving The Law. Read it. When it's finished.

My catchphrase of the moment would have to be :
"It's 10.00pm and M has found herself at the grocery store. Again. It's always the same. Formula and toilet paper. Will her life ever get any more exciting? (stay tuned)"
More like a catchparagraph really :)
Toilet paper: the theme of the modern world.
