Odd twists

Okay, I never expected the latest confrontation between Afghan Harpy and Old Guy to drift into discussing the powers and skills of Sulaiman bin Daoud...

And this is why I don't bother with outlines. I write the stories to find out what happens. I know that some writers' plots spring forth fully armed and all that inspirational stuff. Mine don't. I have a general idea what is going to happen in the end (Happily Ever After, except when it isn't), start out with a character and a setting and a problem, and dive into the labyrinth.

Not as windy today, possible snow flurries, temperatures maybe ten degrees warmer. I have hopes of a ski run at the city forest later. Maybe too icy, will go widdershins because of those downhill turn/tree questions I have mentioned before.
