I went through a 'Southwest chic' phase and lizards are integral (as are the festive skeletons of dia del muerte fame).<br /><br />And you're right... Everyone writes differently. I warned someone not too long ago not to share TOO MUCH because it could be stolen, but a chapter or two--not enough, and I am even less worried about a query type summary. The full synopsis might lead to too much overlap, but it STILL can't imitate my writing or the details I intend to include.<br /><br />(and it seems to me an agent/editor type would be easy to win a case against, so the temptation on their end would be lower)Hart Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17599570189253229318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30931389.post-55473648739438501572009-11-25T08:16:40.717-07:002009-11-25T08:16:40.717-07:00Happy Thanksgiving Terry.

Lots of copyright questions.<br /><br />You're so right--we all approach stories differently, by virtue of our different backgrounds and experiences.<br /><br />"Alice's Restaurant" didn't strike a chord in me until I saw your tags at the bottom of your post...and then I remembered. :)<br /><br />Hope you have a great Thanksgiving, Terry. <br /><br />Elizabeth<br /><a href="http://mysterywritingismurder.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow"> Mystery Writing is Murder</a>Elizabeth Spann Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15625595247828274405noreply@blogger.com
