What's the craziest thing a person's said to you after they've interrupted your writing flow?

My all-time favorite is: "Do I ever give you any ideas when I talk to you while you're writing?" The assailant...my dear sweet mother. I say no, but she keeps asking. She normally asks when I'm glaring in her direction with my fingers frozen above my keyboard.

Cheering you all on!
"Mrow."

Nobody but my cats bothers me while I'm in the zone. I've been in the zone many times at Borders, but nobody bothers me then.

" Why can't I ever read what you're writing?"

...Nuff said.

" Stop wasting your time and study."

But I am 'studying'!

"Want me to get down on my knees and crawl under the desk? It might get things 'flowing' for you." :) True story.

God, I'm one of the lucky few who actually loves his wife...and with good reason as you can see.

Well, his wife's eighty-four, so thanks to arthritis and air pressure, she's still working on getting down there. But he'll let you know next week.

:D

Ah, PeeDee, you've confused one of the many sexual encounters you -- or I for that matter -- have had with your mother. :) I'll admit, yes, your mom does have a difficult time getting into position sometimes. But, as you know, it's well worth the wait. There's something to be said for a woman with no teeth performing this act. :)

Just so it be known, I'm kidding/dishing it back. A noob, such as myself, would certainly be destroyed in a battle of wits against the almighty PeeDee.

"Sorry. Were you working?"

Um, no, I was sitting here staring at a computer screen and typing like my life depended on it because I had nothing better to do...

Damn truth. And all the lurkers and fiction novelists support me, too.

Anyway, I thought going after my mom was uncalled for. I just pointed out that your wife had trouble crawling under the desk to retrieve your pen and thus help you continue to write.

Gawd.

:D

The craziest thing said to me while writing? Hmm......

"Whatcha ya doing?" and "You're wasting your time, you need to go outside. It's a beautiful day."

My mother said those things while rolling her eyes at me. She does not understand the passion for writing that I have and above all else she has no inkling that my writing is decent and publishable.

"Why do you write?"

Another of Mom's comments. To which I replied, "Why do you breathe?" Yes, that was sarcastic but it got her off my back. She doesn't bother me so much anymore........... Thank God!

All bow -- like his mom -- to the much revered and venerated PeeDee. :)

And, uh, did I say sexual act? I meant strenuous act, yeah, that's it. It was a typo...honest. Given the said typo, I can see where you thought I was "dissin' yo mama" but, really man, you should've read between the lines and realized that wasn't my intention. Yeah, that's it.

Man, you're one dirty minded bastard, aint ya? :))

Yes! I've had that asked many times. I feel myself about to say, "Yeah, duh!" but I refrain. After all, I am a calm person. Sort of. :roll:

"Tom's just taken three hits of acid, he's walking around the house with a cockroach in his hand that he's calling his superfly, and he just kicked the cat for not farting enough."

"What do you want me to do about it?"

"I thought you could go to the store and get some beans for the cat."
