Okay, so I have to know if this ever happens to any of my other writer peeps. Do you ever have people mention something specific in your work, and you have literally no idea what they’re talking about? Like, it doesn’t even sound remotely familiar?
This happened to me last night in a text convo with my editor.
Editor: BTW, love the added bit with the text near the end.
Me: Ummm…? *whispers* I don’t remember writing that.
Editor: LOLOL It’s in there.
Me: …
Editor: <excerpts passage she’s referencing>
Me:
Editor: LMAO
Me: *rereads the passage* Huh…still not familiar. But…that is pretty good – lol.
Oh my god, yes. It’s like I’m in an trance half the time. I wrote that?!? (for both good and bad things :).
It’s cool, but sometimes, it’s so disconcerting, like wait a second…who’s in charge, here? 😀
Yes!!!! I’ve done that. I like to think that it’s the characters taking over and making stuff happen. Or something like that.
omg, yes! I have the WORST memory. It’s sad, really. I had someone talk to me about a Second Chance and I just kinda smiled and nodded. Lol
