A House Full of Genres

Having multiple writers in a household makes the month of October a bit... strange.

"Hey, how about a climber whose skeleton is found, still climbing, on a cliff face?" (The grade schooler)

(Shrug) "A suspense book. (The middle schooler [who wrote two books in two months last year].)

"Oh, I don't know. I think an alternate history from the point of view of aliens? My friend xxx won't talk to me anymore if I don't write something." (The high schooler)

My spouse is the only one immune. Or maybe she's girding herself for being a 'writing widow' for yet another year.

(Notice my ducking around my novel. Still feeling around the nooks and crannies of my brain for ideas.)
