This was an amazing read! It reminds me of what Elizabeth Gilbert( author of Eat, Pray, Love) said in her book, “ Big Magic”— she said ideas are like magic or energy that float around. If we don’t capture the idea and “ flesh it out”, someone else will take it.

For instance, she had notes about a future book dealing with botany, a jungle and romance( can’t remember all the details here), but when she met up with another fellow author, the author literally explained to Elizabeth the gist of her upcoming novel and eerie enough it sounded just like Elizabeth’s! Even down to the description of the setting and characters!

I’ve had the same thing happen twice to me, so I better get to work!
