I miss Ellery.

Marie-me toooo!!!!! :'(
But I see Louise's response & while I doubt she could write anything I would find inferior-I get her point. I hope her editing will stir her muse!! I will confess to keeping my copy of Greenlea/Laramie under my bed & whenever I am missing my men I pull it out & read a random section. So far, that's been working to cheer me up while waiting.
*sigh*

Louise - Aww, I didn't mean to make you feel guilty! Good God, woman, anyone who's written over a million words has nothing to feel guilty about ...., but, what can I say - you've created people who are real! I don't think what you said about needing inspiration sounds odd at all and I completely understand that. But, I must say I don't think "Louise" and "inferior" are in the same dictionary! Good luck with the editing and "Gabby Ellery!" LOL!
Fabienne - yep, I love the reworked "Taking Chances," too - and yep, re-reading is a great way to keep Ellery close by. I'll light a candle, too! :)
Kelly - An Ellery game is a great idea - let's put on our thinking caps. I can think of lots of games I'd like to play with Ellery ....... ;D
Fran Thanks for that - it's nice to know I'm not the only who keeps the boys close by ;)

Lots of us have been having fun with various ABC games (see the ABCs board). Maybe we could start an "ABCs of Ellery" game and play it here? (This thread used to be one of the liveliest here at Bettermost, so it would be fun to get the post count up again).
Basically, you run through the alphabet, quoting things from the story....we could make it be characters, places, famous quotes, etc.
Generally in the ABC games, there is a one or two turn rule. For this, I am going to suggest we make it a one turn rule (one letter must be played before you can go again). If the game gets real lively, maybe we'll change it to a two-turn rule.
Change the subject line to show the letter being played, ie, "E" is Ellery Cantrell. In the message, post some comment or other bit of trivia--pictures are oka too--about the "thing" in your post.
I'll go first after this message. Let's see how it works.
