Another coup for Jill

For this year's NaNoWriMo, I have been planning on writing an epistolary novel. As one of my French Lit classes in 2nd year university taught me, some of the earliest novels were written in the form of letters, so it seems only fitting that I follow suit. That, and, I read The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society last year and loved it.

As I have been pondering what to write - only at the back of my mind and without actually breaking the rules about planning novels - I realized I need a new iconic figure for this novel. Zac Efron just won't cut it anymore. I'm not writing another novel about Seth. Jill had a couple of suggestions, and when I told her I was thinking I wanted to choose a woman, Jill immediately fired back with the only sensible solution.

Cyndi Lauper.

Of course! It seems so obvious now, but alas, it took Jill's wisdom to reveal it to me. In a few days, I'll track down the perfect picture for my new blog layout. But for now, enjoy these:

  1. What a great idea! However, I recommend that for your research you should not, under any circumstances, include the Bones episode that she guest starred in. So awful.

  2. Amazing, amazing, amazing. I can't wait for the wardrobe in your novel. Does your character have a name?
