Socrates: This is an improvement Charlotte. We also did some fantastic work today. That time with Fyren was superb - never been that drunk before.
Charlotte: Glad you enjoyed it, you two have been fun to write today. Also ridiculously cooperative - what have you done with the real Socrates Lorenzo?
Socrates: I kind of like this story - and you were right about the sense of humour, when we rewrite the other books can we keep it ?
Charlotte: Yup, I think you have it worked out perfectly. Oh I forgot can you sign Fy's poster for him.
Socrates: Can think of other bits I would rather sign.
Charlotte: Dirty old bugger.
Socrate: Less of the old. I am only one hundred and fifty years old. When you place me with four thousand year old Lucy and five hundred year old Ivory, I am but a mere babe in arms.
Charlotte: You find a grey hair or something? Never known you be touchy about your age.
Socrates: Sorry that scene had me feeling older. Anyway you it is 2am we have worked hard today and I want you in bed.
Charlotte: Night Soc - try and see you tomorrow.
Socrates: You better I want to write the next scene.
I am Father Abbot Socrates Lorenzo the slightly confused and angry character from stories about the Royal Family of Covesea Island. My creator Charlotte and I have some serious issues. I have decided to take my frustrations about my life with her out in this blog.

Its Cold
Socrates: Fancy leaving me so alone after all we have been through lately
Charlotte: Sorry Soc. Had flu and trying to rewrite our story. We did a really good job.
Socrates: Hmm
Charlotte: What is up?
Socrates: Don't like being ignored
Charlotte: Is this why you are not cooperating with the rewrite?
Socrates: Partly yes. Why can't you speak to me everyday?
Charlotte: In the New Year
Socrates: You promised before when we moved house.
Charlotte: Wasn't expecting everything to be so messy with the move or Richard and me to both be sick. Sorry Soc. Scouts honour this time?
Socrates: Ever been a Scout?
Charlotte: Nope was a Brownie for a little while
Socrates: Thought so you have no Scouting stuffimijigs to honour
Charlotte: What kind of word is that ?
Socrates: The kind that I make up when I have had too much time to myself.
Charlotte: Message received Soc. Why don't you go and get yourself some ginger tea, and I will try and get this scene written.

Yick!!
Charlotte: Why aren't you fighting me over this plotline?
Socrates: Not sure it is a bit twisted. I feel resigned, sad like it has to happen. Maybe a part of me things anything is worth it to get Nate back. Or maybe like one of my lines in the book which says I need to be prepared to do anything or the universe it all lost.
Charlotte: Wow is this what a hundred and thirty years of wisdom does for you?
Socrates: Maybe - can we talk about something else. You have set some terrible tasks for me - I don't want to spend next few days thinking about them until they are over.
Charlotte: Any ideas for the final scene?
Socrates: Thinking cooking in the kitchen with Nate sounds good. However may involve more clothes than I had in mind.
Charlotte: So I guess iceskating is out then?
Socrates: definitely.
Charlotte: Anyway things to do see you tomorrow.
Socrates: Sure let us get back to work and get this over with.

Charlotte: Soc I am so sorry - have seriously missed our discussions. Apart from lonely how has life been?
Socrates: I am OK - getting fed up of listening to John Barrowman - I know he has some weird freaky inspiration for our stories. Any chance of a change of music tomorrow?
Charlotte: Bon Jovi?
Socrates: Sounds great to me - big improvement. I can pretend Nate is flipping cartwheels to it.
Charlotte: Good job you can now successfully time travel huh?
Socrates: Yeah I am getting used to it. Anyway you need to be in bed or I'll be neglected again and I swear I will cry, snot and vomit and everything.
Charlotte: Very funny - ok night Soc.

You forgot me
Charlotte: Soc I am so sorry. We did move on with your story.
Socrates: Not sure I like this story - you promised me warm fuzzies. Now you have plans to have someone try and kill me.
Charlotte: You know I would never kill you off Socrates. If I do I promise it will be like Angus - you will be ready to go.
Socrates: Hmm OK.
Charlotte: How is the sewing working out?
Socrates: Well due to you making me live an austere life - it replaces the TV keeps me busy in the evening.
Charlotte: Do you need a TV?
Socrates: After a hundred years think I would be behind with most of my shows. Seem to be managing without it. Nate never minded. Fy objects.
Charlotte: OK back to work 11K and we have completed NaNo. Speak to you tomorrow.

We are back
Socrates: Where the hell have you been?
Charlotte: We were moving house, offline and we have been working hard on your NaNo story. Do you like it?
Socrates: Not bad so far. Fyren is proving kind of hot - any chance of some undisturbed time sometime?
Charlotte: I keep trying to fit it in so far not worked well has it
Socrates: Who else has an author that interrupts some of the steamiest sex their character has ever had with exploding apples?
Charlotte: Good to have you back Soc, and sorry about that - I am currently trying to get you back to your room, where hopefully Fyren will be waiting for you. What do you think a fire person can give you by way of passion?
Socrates: I so ain't discussing my sex life with you. None of your business.
Charlotte: OK Soc, back to work for you and me.
