I've been trying to flesh out, in my mind, the woman who will be the wife in THE HOMESTRETCH. No structure yet, but I am pulling in bits and pieces about her, and him. They don't have permanent names yet. Right now I am thinking of them as ANGEL and GEORGE, but I don't think those are their true names. Here's something she says.
ANGEL: There was a time when every inch of his body was precious to me. When the sound of his voice, the way he moved, infinitely fascinating………But I’ve seen all that, heard it all. A thousand times. All his brilliant ideas, his philosophy of life, his politics, his personality. His body. There’s nothing new going to happen here. Forty years? Christ. I want surprises. A fresh life. I want my life now to be about me. Not him, not us. Me. In the world. I want to be the only one. I'm not afraid of loneliness.
HOT.
