so am i.

[finotti]

[...] How's your story writing going?

[iyla]

i haven’t made as much progress as i should have by now. you?

[finotti]

Same. Every time I start something I hate it and throw it out

[iyla]

new things or do you have an idea in mind that you’re sticking to?

[finotti]

New things every time, I don't have a good idea

[iyla]

what’s one you’ve tried and given up on?

[finotti]

Miss Marple on the mnemo

[iyla]

[…] what?

[finotti]

Have you read any Marple?

[iyla]

no. i have no idea what that is.

[finotti]

She's an old lady who's smarter than everyone else and solves crimes, but it's often crimes in a closed setting where no one can get in or out so all the characters are suspects. The mnemo seemed like a good closed setting

[iyla]

maybe aim for something less whimsical.

[finotti]

Like what?

[iyla]

i don’t know. it’s fine. you can stick to that.

[finotti]

No, it wasn't going well anyway

[iyla]

have you had any ideas that you think would be good?

[finotti]

I don't think I'd be struggling as much if I had

[iyla]

you’re probably just getting in your own head too much.

[finotti]

Yeah maybe. Have you chosen an idea?

[iyla]

i’m rethinking it, but yes.

[finotti]

What is it?

[iyla]

i’m not interested in sharing the idea.

[finotti]

Why are you rethinking?

[iyla]

i think it might be too real compared to what you’re thinking of writing.
