41st Draft [Voice]

[cuffmeonce]

Settling back into my regular routine seems to be more of a problem then I had anticipated. I'd planned to write at Cafe Juliet today and yet every time I open a blank page my mind goes blank.

It must be recent events: the harpies, the barrier falling, the animals missing, Kate's return home and those odd City tour guides.

Perhaps once things return to normal in the City my routine will return to normal.

Crime mystery?

It must take a lot of brain to figure out the plot before writing it.

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

So much brain. I'm a very bright person. [He chuckles with that] Or at least moderately so. Many of my plots are inspired by my research and by things that actually happen. I like to put truth in my fiction.

Richard Castle and my mother would be horrified at my lack of manners. You are?

[Somewhere with his ego?]

Mae Crawford. I know a Castle here - Alexis. Is she with you?

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

Alexis is my daughter.

[brobeforehos.livejournal.com]

Really! How fortunate that you're both here together.

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

For my sake, I agree with you. However, I often feel guilty about that. Our world was safer or at least I could take measures to make sure she was a bit more safe. Here, there's little I can do most days.

[A caring father - she wonders how that works.] Your presence is going to be more than enough, in the long run. A parent who cares is everything a kid needs.

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

[Poor thing] She's a great kid. Its easy to be there for her.

[brobeforehos.livejournal.com]

She is pretty awesome, what with the baking.

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

She's brilliant, makes a great cup of coffee and beautiful too.

[brobeforehos.livejournal.com]

And good coffee, too - well now I'm definitely glad I've met her.

[cuffmeonce.livejournal.com]

She works at Cafe Juliet. Tell her I sent you.

[brobeforehos.livejournal.com]

I will!
