A line from This Way To The Egress, describing the main character's college roommate (one of several):
Leslie is the serious cheerleader type, who's blond and fresh-faced and always reminds me of someone doing backflips on a beach in a tampon commercial. She doesn't smile, though, or sneer or frown or laugh. By the time summer rolls around, she will have said a grand total of twenty-seven words to me the entire year and executed three whole facial expressions.
I'm at something like 2900 words, so I'm closing up shop on that one for tonight to work on Heroine Addiction, which just wanted to throw a strop and not go anywhere. I presume that was out of jealousy over the shiny new literary tartlet waving her ta-tas at me and giving me a come-hither-and-write-me smile from the other side of the room.
... I really couldn't tell you when my writing process started looking so much like a lesbian love triangle.
