Fluff: the next level
Okay, Shirley just hit the big-time—I’m thinking about writing a story about him completely unrelated to the Grand Ellipse.
I only do this with characters and games I really, really like.
It came about because Li introduced a friend of Shirley’s back home, someone who might be able to help him. Great huge stereotype alert—the guy is a hard-drinkin’ Scots journalist, now retired. He and Shirley are the oddest Odd Couple I’ve seen in a while, just irresistible subjects for a story.
So. Have characters, need plot…
Update: Li just suggested the mother of all set-pieces. Jehoshaphat. Still need a plot, though…
