something from the archives

I sometimes find that a writers block can be eroded by going back to a random notation from the past. I’m hopping this one will unhinge something.

“Oblivious to the greater social ramification, Ling and Charles Curr, named their newborn ‘Wan’.”

    oooh Pri… You never told us about your horrendous middle name?
    Penelope St.Claire or Gertrude?

    Troy Riley Shepherd – now that’s a good solid name.
