The "Brit a Day" series

What does a months-long parade of attractive British men have to do with fiction, you might well ask? These gentlemen have inspired some lovely scenes, part of the life I live in my head. Over time, some of these scenes reach out to one another and begin to form a story. For the present, each one of these pictures provides a writing prompt for me, a way to keep me writing with a sense of passion and narrative, even when the stories are not yet fully formed.

A Brit a Day [#41]

In honor of St. Patrick's Day, I'm going off the grid and posting an Irish actor, Gabriel Byrne. Of course, if one is Irish, one is technically not a Brit. But everyone is welcome here, right?

The first movie I became aware of Gabriel Byrne in was 'The Usual Suspects.' It is one of my favorite films. For several reasons, I think my friend Donna, who finds most of my objects of desire too young for her taste, would approve of today's post. And she's not even Irish.
