Very short and quick chapter.

Chrissy is getting impatient with me.

Chrissy looked up from her lap-top and sighed. “I'm bored!” she said.

Ian set his novel down and looked at her. “Yeah... me, too,” he replied.

“There's nothing happening!” she said impatiently.

“No,” he agreed, “Nothing's happening.”

“That guy needs to do something!” she said with annoyance.

“What guy?”

“That author guy you keep talking about. The one that's supposedly writing our story.”

“Oh. That guy.”

“Yeah! That guy! He needs to get busy and start writing again!”

Ian shrugged. “Maybe he has writer's-block. Or maybe he's got something else going on right now.”

“More important than us?!” she asked derisively.

He shrugged again.

Chrissy looked up toward the ceiling and called out to no one in particular, “Hey! Write something for Christ's sake, will you?! I'm going stir crazy here!”

(Patience, Chrissy... patience)

Author's Note

I have put the story of Ian and Chrissy on hold as I prepare for an upcoming art festival. It got me to wondering what happens to them when I'm not writing.

I just keep rereading it and it's just pure genius.

Wow! Thank you. I have lots of stories about Ian and Chrissy. And Chrissy has an attitude. Right now I am writing a spy novel that involves them called 'Intrigue'.

Okay! I'll have to go check it out. Thank you!

Haha I love this! It's so clever. It's funny to think about our characters waiting for us to write their stories while we go about our daily activities :)
