I've been writing on a new book and wanted to put in some cute, clever thread that runs throughout the book but is also a clue to the murder.
Hmm. What to use? I already have a cat (Houdini, modeled my current male despot at home). And I have horticultural references throughout (since the murder does take place in a greenhouse).
What to use ... what to use ... what ...
I was going through my SPAM email one day and was struck by all the Viagra emails -- some of the subject lines are really funny. Wouldn't it be great to incorporate them ...
Eureka! Yep. I'm now working on "The Viagra book", and that topic has generated a lot of interest on my MySpace page (a person can set their profile to whatever text they choose, and I often have 'I'm working on the Viagra book').
I think it just goes to show, whenever I think I can't come up with a new story, there's one waiting for me in my inbox!
