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 [#1066]

A Brit a Day Post #1066.  I've always wanted to say that.




My 11-year-old son accused me this morning, rather indignantly, of dumping Tom Hiddleston for James May.  I don't know what difference it makes to him, unless it's because he knows there are 130+ episodes of Top Gear on Netflix and he may be forced to watch them all.

Anyway, here, to prove I am capable of decades-long devotion, have some video of Alan Rickman capering with Michael Gambon at the expense of Dan Radcliffe.  And you will earn a permanent place on the Cool Wall if you know what this has to do with Top Gear.

A Brit a Day [#522]

"I'll show you mine if you show me yours."

Brits almost too numerous to name in this screen cap. My kids were watching HP4 on TV last night, so I couldn't resist.

OK, here goes. Left to right, David Tennant, Alan Rickman, Maggie Smith, Michael Gambon, Daniel Radcliffe. I love every last one of their shaggy heads.
