A couple of quickies:
I think ...Thanks, everyone.<br /><br />A couple of quickies:<br /><br />I think writing to the trends might work, especially if you're fast. I'm not. I might write 'flavor of 14 years ago' fiction. So, I'll call myself a rebel and say I'm bucking the trend instead.<br /><br />Re: hockey beards: it's hard to believe the playoff beard is relatively recent (i.e., started in my lifetime) thing. It seems like they've been doing it forever!<br /><br />Stubble: the "Don Johnson" look--I thought the girls loved it! Maybe when Don Johnson was the only guy looking like that.JeffOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07947660745120963286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281000668036619727.post-12416954958872764672014-05-09T11:41:19.711-04:002014-05-09T11:41:19.711-04:00I agree with not writing to trends, but it works f...I agree with not writing to trends, but it works for some people. I feel bad about bowing to popular tastes and writing a thriller instead of horror... But I have to give it a shot. ONE shot. Then I go back to what I love and am good at even if it doesn't sell.

I can't even imagine how they can be seen as attract. Who wants to kiss sandpaper? O_o Donna K.

Don't they realize they made it TO the playoffs without them? So why jinx it?<br /><br />Stacy McKitrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07898731847653710759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8281000668036619727.post-21803002595408442422014-05-09T07:21:17.697-04:002014-05-09T07:21:17.697-04:00LOL
