Hi from Julie.
We were at a writers meeting when they were discussing the nude weekend series of stories. It quickly became clear that this was going to be a biggie. The main writers were taking different parts but Susan seemed to think we needed an opening story. Sort of a way introducing the whole idea and getting Sarvesh to layout how the weekend would go. It sounded easy enough so when Susan offered it to me I agreed to give it a hit.
Now, Anne had another pet project she has been working on concerning Amita driving. No one but her had any idea where this was going. After the meeting, she took me aside and asked if I wanted to add driving into my story since she wanted to bring this theme to a head. We worked out a few ideas until the driving became the central theme of this story. I rather liked that idea to tell you the truth. It made the story just that bit more interesting while at the same time making it a bit more challenging for me as a new writer.
I touched base with Shandra to get a bit of Indian culture into the story. She suggested crazy traffic and the restaurant. She also said that Sarvesh, being very wealthy, most like wouldn’t drive himself or deal with simple things like buying from local trade people.
I talked with Susan and she said the story needed a sex scene. Of course it does, this is a sexy blog, isn't it? I wondered about this and almost changed it to an overnight trip but then Allan who had been sitting with my husband Brian suggested the idea of a driving fantasy. The two men bounced ideas off each other and almost knocked out that last section. When Anne agreed, after all, the driving theme was her baby, in it went.
So there I was, with all these ideas and a small pile of notes, I went home to write. The story proved very easy to write and went together very quickly. By mid-April, I was completed and ready for uploading when I was told Shandra was jumping in first with her story. I was surprised but it sort of makes sense when you read her story.
