After YEARS... I've written a poem. It was born over my pouting that my knee hurts all the time. I blew it out in August and it's still not quite good. 
          	
          	It's a villanelle, not written that great LOL. But I shall torture you anyway.
          	
          	If I could dance again, would I dare to?
          	When I leap, I will learn what waits in pain.
          	Would you ask if the cost would follow you?
          	
          	Do you doubt if I tried that I'd follow through?
          	I could rise from each fall and reach again.
          	If I could dance again, would I dare to?
          	
          	What if the choice meant losing all I knew?
          	Everyone would say that I am insane.
          	Would you ask if the cost would follow you?
          	
          	What if my life could be polished anew?
          	It might be a wish that will turn out vain.
          	If I could dance again, would I dare to?
          	
          	What if my fear retreated as I grew?
          	I must move through the doubts that still remain.
          	Would you ask if the cost would follow you?
          	
          	Could I honor the cost and still sustain?
          	Would I step toward a life in broader view?
          	I could dance again, if I would dare to.
          	Would you ask if the cost would follow you?

Are there any movie phrases you use on a constant basis? Mine is "Thank you for doing that Helen," from Dave :)

@IanSnow4 Non-princess bride related, anytime I give someone a lotion bottle, I feel I must add, "It puts the lotion on its skin"

Because, of course, I'm procrastinating writing the end of No Solace. 
          
          I made a playlist for the book instead for spotify if any of you like that sort of thing. 55 songs for 55 chapters :)

I'm three chapters away from finishing the rewrite of No Solace. I'm pretty happy with it. I think it has a bit more depth than my first rendition.
