One of my favorite lines from the movie Tombstone is when Val Kilmer’s Doc Holiday looks at Johnny Ringo and says, “I’ll be your huckleberry.”
I never thought he said anything other than huckleberry and in the original script, that is the line. However, there is debate that the word that he should’ve said is huckle bearer. This article is a great look at how differences in just one word can change the entire meaning of the dialogue and can change the perceptions of a character. Go read it! It’s great.
I start my new classes tomorrow! I’m excited. 🙂
And my novel is halfway finished. It is now at 26k. I hope to finish it by mid Feb. We’ll see what happens with the addition of two classes.
