I've been getting into the Mayan Calendar lately. Or the concept of a mayan calendar following the moons. It's still taking me awhile to follow it mind you, I haven't put quite as much focus on it as I want to. But I like the idea of following the moons as it does seem more natural to me, in that a woman's cycle is around the moons. Plus I'd like to have my characters in one of my future pieces that is woman centred follow that calendar. Calendar Info
I've been watching DVD's since I don't have a television. I've watched You've got Mail and the Notebook and Gone with the Wind. With Gone with the Wind I marvel at how bitchy Scarlet O'Hara was and yet I still want her to eventually win Rhett Butler's love back.
I've come to realize that a good romance for me is when the two prospective lovers interact early on.
I didn't love Sleepless in Seattle for that one reason. I like to see a relationship develop with characters and feel that they had no choice but to fall in love with eachother. So should I ever write a straight romance, that is what would need to happen. In You've Got Mail, I like to figure out when Meg Ryan's character fell in love with Tom Hanks character. And better yet, when she started to sense that he was the one that she was emailing. He dropped enough hints.
