Dee La Rue and The Case Of Missing Mimi

Hey Gang, 

Renee just got a home office.  She can now work comfortably from home.



Prior to this, she had just been working here and there from her laptop.

Testing it out, she is sitting there at her work desk.

She has a old fashion typewriter she sometimes uses.
Having her own space makes working from home easier.
She is having a cup of tea from her special tea service that she got especially for her office.
She has seating area for guest.
She was just about to have a cookie!
She wants to start a detective novel.  A kind of dark film noir kinda drama Her
main charater will be a women detective!  Dee LaRue!

She thinks her new office can be her inspiration!
Renee types-The Case Of Missing Mimi
Dee LaRue in her office when there was a knock at the door.
I need a different outfit! 
Dee: Come in.
A tall, well dressed man enters the room.
The man: Hello
Dee: Hello. Please have a seat. How can I help you?

The man looks around as if he is looking for something.
Feeling a little uneasy, Dee slowly moves her hand to the
draw were the rest of the cookies and the gun are kept.

He sits.  The man: Where is the detective? Are youuu.. the detective?

A little miffed Dee snaps at him.
Dee: Yes, I am!
The man: ..but... you are a woman!
A little more miffed she say
Dee: WOW, your are quick! You must not need a detective.
The man looked stunned...then he recovered.
The man: I'm sorry, I didn't mean anything by it. I just...
haven't seen a woman detective before. My name is Cephus, Cephas Peters?

Dee: Cephas Peters hey? Look I don't have time for jokes!
Cephas: No, I'm not joking,that is really my name!

Dee: I thinks that your parents must have been mean because isn't Cephas another
name for Peter? That would make you Peter Peters!  I'm gona needs a cookie
to get though this! 
Dee: Ok... Mr. Peters, how can I help you?

Cephas: Well, it is my sister. Her name is Mimi. She is missing and I need to find her.  I need to know
if she is OK.
Dee: Ok, tell me a little about your sister and why you think she is missing.

OK, Thanks For Looking!

Congratulations to Renee on getting her new home office. She looks really well equipped to work on her novel! I love how you switched from color to black and white to express Renee working out the story in her head!

Thanks for your comments Mel,Linda,Jeanie,April and Chris!

Mel,Linda, and Chris, I am hoping to do more stories this year and was inspired by that desk I found in a thrift store. I need to decide who will play Mimi.

April, Switching from color actually came up when I was cleaning and playing with my camera functions. I didn't know that it did black and white shots. Sadly I have stuff on the camera's sensor and can't get it off. I might have to take it some place to have it cleaned.

Jeanie, So I met a guy who's name was Cephas Peters and thought it was so funny!
