My daughter has NAILED the horrible Lifetime movies my wife likes to watch. At age 8, she’s already writing on their level. True conversation while watching the latest Dean Cain offering:
Daughter: How is this a love story if they are already married?
Wife: They’re not married.
Me: Usually they don’t make love stories about people who are already married. Although they could!
Wife: Yeah, that’s right!
Me: But you’re right, a love story is usually a boy meets a girl and they fall in love.
Daughter: No, a love story is when a girl meets a boy at work and they get embarrassed into each other and then there’s a problem. The woman is an aunt and her niece helps her solve it and then there’s an oopsy-daisy [like he catches her when she falls or she bumps into him or whatever] and the boy and the girl go on a date and they are happy.
I see that you are going to have a comfortable retirement supported by the income of your daughter’s literary career. Start ’em early!
