ME TOO!!! The fricking boat sinks... end of story....
I even do that with my own stories - if I figure out the endings too fast - hey I'm good, no point in writing the rest out. Oh yeah - seriously. lol

Oddly, many of my own stories and poems start with the end and I write my way backwards. I may be onto something strange about me....

SO - now I refuse to let myself skip to the end. That being said - in my excitement / anxiety I will skim during the dull bits. I seriously do NOT need to read about how you fold your clothes or what fabric they're made of - or how many friggen veins are in that leaf over there. O.o (good grief Anne Rice - stop it!)

Uhm.. I've digressed. Or maybe not...

No, heck I think part of reading is discussing the reading. What frustrates a reader. What excites a reader. What makes you throw the book across the room, watch it hit the wall, fall to the floor and take a week to pick it up... or maybe that is just me... <insert distracting whistle here>
Ok I'll step away from the mic now lol

Okay, but it is here if you have any other entertaining thoughts you want to share...
