Orson Scott Card created a lot of captions for my recent dialog contest and I could only use one. They were too much fun to waste, though.
So–with Orson’s permission–I dialogued two of the wildest. Here’s the first. The second appears Friday.
I hate it when you forget whom you’re sleeping with. It makes thank you notes so difficult!

I don’t always know who my characters are. But this fearsome mom is different. Many thanks to fan Torsten Adair who came up with the following name and bio:
Gertrude P. Thornsucker. (The P stands for Patricia.) Thornsucker is her maiden name.
She was once the CEO of Amalgamated Feminine Industries. The company was merged with Sweet & Pink, Inc, at which time she retired as CEO and took a seat on the Board of Directors.
In her spare time, she does needlepoint of stock certificates (highly sought after on Wall Street) while listening to Bloomberg Radio. She is a championship Bridge player, once beating the pair of Bill Gates and Warren Buffett. (Warren mowed her lawn, Bill designed her MySpace page.)
