Just when I grab them and think I have it they dissolve or the other side of the coin, crash into each other with enough force you'd swear I was trying to emulate the Big Bang Theory.<br /><br />I do understand the feeling of letting down your readers if one person cancels, for whatever reason. I usually do a mad scramble to tap someone else I know to take up the slack. I have a humor writer who has made all his articles available for me to use if ever I need them. I also tap authors and writers from my writing group. <br /><br />Feel free to contact me and if I can help let me know.~Sia McKye~https://www.blogger.com/profile/08470562659597351033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-28237167547799501662011-02-16T09:06:11.389-05:002011-02-16T09:06:11.389-05:00Rambling is good for the soul every once in a whil...Rambling is good for the soul every once in a while.Maria Zanninihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01604862636922299273noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-18303823114086001272011-02-16T08:32:14.889-05:002011-02-16T08:32:14.889-05:00Great post.

Yesterday I had an idea, though, and I think you´ll like it. I stood in the bathroom, looking at my own legs, wondering what would make Mildred Kickinbottom shave her varicose legs. So today is one of those days when *I* have a story to tell, but they don´t always come easily.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6582932888892465523.post-2208492032799235452011-02-16T07:40:32.778-05:002011-02-16T07:40:32.778-05:00I love post where the person rambles on.
