“THE SPIDER AND THE FLY”
(A ROMANCE STORY)
By
Suzanne LaRosa-Herlihy
Intro:(Narrator)
When men fall in love, they are told to “Go get her man!
Follow your dreams. Tell her what is in your heart.” When a woman
falls in love and chases a man and tells him how she feels, then she is obsessed!
I think It’s a real shame how men treat women! If a woman is seen
as a lonely housewife, then oh...,all she wants is sex! Oh..., ok, that will
fix everything!( NOT! ) I’m telling you, in most cases, the “Mistress
gets nothing!” What kind of crap is that!? Women want to be free and
independent, but they also want a man with a set of nuts and a backbone
To protect them and show a woman that they can be strong and love them.
A respectable ,loving relationship..., And not a one night stand! Are all men babies?
Are all men just trying to get back into the womb? Is chivalry not dead?
My rant is over....
Diane and Konner’s rant is about to begin...
She is a scriptwriter and he is a celebrity.
Enter Diane’s kitchen . It is 7:32 p.m. at night. Diane
said to her husband John,” My writing is not just a hobby!”
John answered,”It is just a hobby , until you get paid for what
you are doing!
And most of the time, you just end up throwing out what you write.
I don’t care.., It gives you something to do while you’re sitting here.
You have no idea about our bills and the fact that they are getting
higher and higher!”
Diane got angry! She said,” Do you have any idea , of all the rejection
letters and broken hearts that the
publishers and agencies like to give out?! I can line the walls with them!”
While in the living room, John shook his head while watching
television, with remote in hand.
Diane sat at the computer and emailed out query letters.
She then checks her email. She sees an email from an agent!
The agent says,” We’d like to represent you! You will need to send $95 for a critique ,so
then you can get an agent!”
She walked back over to John, who was in the living room.
Then said,”See..., Agencies are not supposed to ask for money , they are supposed
To get 10-15 percent of what the commission is for the sale of the script or
