| This one comes to us from Nora NJensen |
Another Year Older and .... deeper in debt? Not necessarily:) One of the guys, preferably Harvey, is facing another birthday. We don't even have to know how old - we just need to know the ramifications of the event. Is he dreading it? Feeling old? Does handling a mishap on the job that day make him realize he's not that old or only as old as you feel? Is there family history that could impact how he feels about this birthday - a death, a celebration - maybe even something that happened to a previous partner on his birthday. Parental pressure for success by a certain age? Personal pressure for success by a certain age? A childhood mishap on a birthday causing misgivings about the date? Do the others know it's his birthday? Does he want them to know, wishes they knew? Maybe he's never had a birthday party? Or maybe he's had one with a tragic outcome or a humorous outcome? It can be serious or humorous, long or short, angst, drama or light hearted fluff. The key is that the birthday has to play a major role in the story. So start writing, we're looking forward to your responses! |
