Day 22: An Unscheduled Break

“Natalie Scribe was the sole victim in a tragic and wholly unexpected accident concerning the Plot Twist Closet of the Something in Ink Novel House. 

The nearly fatal accident occurred shortly after Natalie inquired as to the best way to prolong her story, The Princess’s Quest for Ink (working title), so as to continue it through the end of the month. Unfortunately while reaching for a box labeled, ‘Lesser Natural Disasters’ she bumped into a miss-filed box of villains, ‘Unstable Henchmen’ to be exact.

Fortunately the only one to be dislodged was one of the ‘Creepy but Harmless with Evil Grin and Cackling Laugh’ types (commonly abbreviated as CbHwEGaCL.) Natalie received quite a fright and bumped her head rather hard when she stumbled out of the closet. 

Natalie has been cleared by Nurse Plotter to continue writing and the CbHwEGaCL was returned to the Spare Villain's Storeroom with no further incident. The investigation as to how ‘Unstable Henchmen’ got into the Plot Twist Closet is ongoing; updates will follow as they are released to us.”

“Please stop reading that Cathy, my head aches so and it’s dreadfully embarrassing.”

“Oh come on Natalie, you made it into the ‘Something in Daily News,’ a whole article too. I’ve been here two years and only been mentioned twice, once in the newbie’s list and then as a participant in Deadly Tales Night. You’re practically a celebrity.”

“Do you really think so?”

“Well your better known then most newbies anyway.”

“Hmmm, I am aren’t I.”

“Sure, now don’t let it go to your head, there’s enough pressure up there right now as it is.”

“Thanks for reminding me. Don’t you have a novel to write?”

“Okay, Okay, I’m going, don’t get snippy.”

“I’m not getting snippy.”

“Are too.”

“Are not.”

“Are too.”

“Are not.”

“Are—.”

“Just leave already!”

****This break from writing was brought to you by Something in Ink, Something in Ink Novel House, and the Something in Daily News. Regular posting will continue tomorrow. On behalf of our sponsors I would like to wish you good luck with your novel today and to thank you for reading***
