I've been thinking about a variety of story lines for November's writing challenge with NaNoWriMo - and then got distracted by life.
Any-hoo...
A year or two ago, I had a recurring nightmare where my ex-husband would call me and say he and his girlfriend were pregnant. He would then ask me if I wanted the baby, because both of them would rather stick pins through their eyes than be parents. Variants of this dream included me saying yes; me laughing and hanging up the phone; or me saying no and bawling my eyes out because he went and got someone else pregnant.
Seriously, could you imagine?
- Girl meets boy
- Girl marries boy
- Boy asks for a divorce because he doesn't want children (doesn't mention girlfriend on side)
- Girl gets over boy, meets and marries better, devoted-to-her boy
- Girl and better, devoted-to-her boy have baby dreams
- Two years later, boy asks girl if she would adopt the baby of boy and his mistress
- Girl is unable to conceive despite multiple attempts with better, devoted-to-her boy
- Girl is in her 40s
- Girl has a dilemma
