lol, Sounds like a cookbook recepie. A dash of drama here, a pinch of romance there... A spoonfull of angst.... lol

LMAO I almost wrote a short story the other day like that. About a recipe for writing good fluff.

It was gonna be good too! But then I got distracted and it didn't get written. story of my life.

Yeah, I'll have to do some story day dreaming as I walk to school tomorrow.  That's how I cook up most of my plotlines in the first place :D

People think it would be fun to be a bird because you could fly. But they forget the negative side, which is the preening.

Me, there have been endings to stories that I absolutely don't "like" but make the story what the story needs to be and so I love it!

*shys* well I can't recall any BSB fanfic that ends in a manner I'm not expecting.

Now The Stone of Light series .. I don't recall thinking it was going to end how it did.  And some of the mystery stories by Mary Higgins Clark have done that.

I read too much Historical Fiction based on real people not to know the ending already (Anne Boylen gets beheaded; Cleopatra kills herself with an asp...)
