Life is a Roller Coaster

Life can change in an instant. So often we become comfortable or even bored with the way things are, and we expect them to stay that way day after day after day. And then in a split second, something's gone that leaves an aching empty spot, or something's gained that solves an enormous problem or fills a void. And that's what we have to do in our stories. Keep that roller coaster rolling. Our stories need those heart wrenching dips and quick free falls.

  1. The ups and downs are part of life, though, just as you said. And just like a roller coaster, the ride is over far too quickly.

  2. AH! I was thinking of roller coasters and places to rest regarding my Swamp Spells just his morning! (And I added you to my Google Home page) :-)
