July 5, 2011

I am a permanently single woman. Or at least some days I've convinced myself of this. Usually on days when I'm feeling particularly lonely. Today isn't necessarily one of those days, but it's the only "excuse" if you will, that I can use for the basis of inspiration for my blog today.

Sometimes on those days though, when I am feeling particularly lonely, I dive into the cheesy romance novels that almost always have the same happy endings. Danielle Steele is my favourite, but there are many other authors who have written similar books.

I always wonder, how they came up with the inspiration to write so much, and do it so well. Surely Danielle Steele can't be writing her fiction based purely off of real life experiences.

My favourite types are the Cinderella stories. The ones with the prince charming who sweeps her off her feet straight into her happy ending. Those tend to get predictable though. You know what's going to happen before the story is half over. That doesn't make the story less good, just...predictable.

This would probably explain my permanent single status. I have stars in my eyes and I want something that's not likely ever going to happen. It's okay to dream though.

Until next time. I am still on my quest for what was once my oh so vivid imagination...

  1. I used to think the same way. Seriously, I did. And then something changed in my head and I was just desperate to find someone, anyone, who could take me away from my father.

    I eventually found someone who was both my prince and my knight in shinning armor.

    You'll find him. Or he'll find you. Love you!
