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 [#135]

This week's theme is 'Celebrity Brit + One'. In this case, Alan Rickman's 'plus one' is Sonya Walger. Or it could be the other way around--she is most certainly a lovely Brit as well.

I don't mean to imply anything romantic with the 'plus one' thing--'Plus one' is just the person you take with you to a wedding or high tea or an invitation-only concert in which a rich kid tries to present a fusion of classical music and rock with a band called DriveShaft....okay, I didn't say that....

Anyway, here are Alan and Sonya. They were very cute together in 'The Search for John Gissing.' And by 'cute together' I don't mean to imply.....
