Cryptomnesia is a certain type of a memory bias where a memory is mistaken for imagination. It is said that this happens to writers quite often. What do you think about this memory quirk? Have you ever written something that you didn’t know at first if it was a memory or a derivative of it or totally your imagination?

I've never heard of this before, but it does sound quite interesting. Sometimes I wonder if my memory and the novel I wrote blur this line a good bit. Of course, there haven't been any faeries, demons, vampires, werewolves, zombies, phantoms, ect, in my life, but there have been some strange incidents and people in it. Things that make you go hmmm.......

Dear friend,

Thank you for thinking of me! I've never received something so unique before. This gum definitely livened up my senses and left a memorable taste in my mouth.

Don't forget to share it with others!

Your Friend,

My life

The prompts were very interesting tonight, and I enjoyed writing my responses.

Not much happened today except for finishing up a cleaning job and doing research for my YouTube channel. My table and tablecloth came in today, so I can start setting up my makeup area in my room to film my videos. I may even film an episode that give a tour of my vanity when I finish setting it up. Two cute pairs of shoes I had ordered came in too. One was a pair of flats and the other some very stylish pumps. I can't wait to wear them.

I'm up to 42 subscribers on my YouTube channel. After I get 58 more subscribers, I plan on holding a small giveaway that will include beauty products and a copy of my novel, Bloodshed on the Setting Sun.

Here's a new Leonard Cohen song that just came out!
