Saturday Sentiments: It's Just Coffee!

It’s just coffee. You won’t have to surrender any of your independence ~ Molesely, Downton Abby

As I’m preparing for this week’s Saturday Sentiments post, I’m reminded of two things.

First, I am working on my first short story for a charity anthology for the Orlando victims. I’ve never done a short story or contemporary so it’s a bit of a stretch for me. In the story, the main character has not dated for a very long time and it’s a similar situaiton…dinner does not constitute bliss and commitment.

It reminds me of my own “dating” life lately. Scared to death of going on anything that resembles a date, I’ve probably missed many opportunities to meet some great people. It’s kind of like some of my favorite characters in the novels I read and write. They miss some great moments to get to know what could be the love of their life.

Too bad real life didn’t turn out like romance novels. :-)

What are you reading this weekend?
