This is another great skit, one I couldn't predict the end of, and aren't those the best kind?
One typo-in Umpty's fourth line, I think you need a question mark at the end.
Love the Norman Bates reference!

Writers are very interesting people. They sometimes live lives very dissimilar from the sort of things they write about. Especially if they are into science fiction. They long for aa world, they know they will probably never see. Even romance writers write about the kind of relationship they will probably never be involved in.

So, fiction all around.
Comment from judiverse
Very Entertaining. I especially enjoyed the comments about writing and you really get into some good issues. So true that romance stories are the big sellers. I recently heard a lecturer say that the problem encountered with trying to make a movie about Beowulf was that there was no love interest. Love the comment about the judges of contests being tottering old ladies who want the world to smell like lilacs. Great "Roses are red" variation from Norman. If you're writing a play, begin with the Cast of Characters and identify them a little bit at the beginning. judi

I always wondered why you didn't particularly care for my writing. Now she says, perhaps I know. I'm going to have to get a little more diabolical and get things messy to get your opinion it seems!
Loved the hell out of this one and it was double funny to me cause I just left from working at the post office haahahahahaah can totally see this scene in one of the Christmas long ass lines.
great stuff Bill. xoxo Kiwi

Comment from Gloria ....
Great way to kill two erm ... uh, love two, ach ... never mind, I guess it goes without saying. Excellent post alluding to the difficulty of writers wanting to write their own thang and tottering old ladies wanting them to write about true love. Sigh.
Another fun script and thanks for sharing.

Thanks, Gloria. Did Norman ever come off as Norman Bates?
Comment from lyenochka
Really? People still mail manuscripts? That would cost too much. Thanks for the fun jab about the contests. I'm no good at love stories and really don't care for romance. Enjoyed the banter here.

Comment from Phyllis Stewart
What a fun piece. Love the name Umpty.
These are spectacular sentences:
-----
Umpty: Nowadays if you kill someone there's something wrong with you.
Mazie: I'm pretty sure that's always been the case.
-----
They have both humor and philosophy, and we could talk for hours about what they say.
Bravo! Good job. :)

Comment from davisr (Rhonda)
Oh, that is so cute! I love the way you refer to FanStory and the contests. Too funny. I enter contests now and then, but try not to let it hurt my feelings when I don't win, which I don't. haha.
Anyway, it's a great script! It made me smile.
Take care,
Rhonda

Comment from Alcreator Litt Dear
This speaks how in a busy post office a new engagement made between a man and woman about writing and publication of stories, they left post office and went to a motel; well worded, well done. Thank you for sharing this with us. KEEP WRITING, INSPIRE CHANGING. DR ALCREATOR

Nice job, Bill. I like the easy banter, but the truths contained therein--that's the true beauty of this piece.
True love is a myth. It would never get read. I hate reading romantic bullshit.
