E-u-r-i-k-a!

"I can't tell you what it really is, I can only tell you what it feels like." And it feels like something as important as the invention of the bike.


My bike's contribution to my writing is invaluable. So many ideas came to me on my bike ride to or from work. Makes me think that all the ides reside in the wind.

This morning, while climbing the hill with the wind against me, an entire scene with my current novel protagonists surfaced in my mind. For one or another reason she said "Let go of me". The details about the situation they were in are unclear, as these days any physical contact is unimaginable. What's important is his answer "N..O..fullstop."

Here it is only fair to say that these two caused me any inconveniece one can think of and eventually turned the whole book upside down, because of the absolute lack of chemistry between them. I, obviously, have been trying to find out what there is between them instead and the above mentioned answer might be a hint that she had fallen under his spell(ing).

Flowing along these thoughts and givinging the character space in the parallel realities, let me in a situation where they were acting as good friends. And a conclusion struck me with its simlicity. That's the absolute furthest they can be from being a couple, unless there is true chemistry between them.
