So I finally heard something say-what-worthy. A conversation between two old women at the library:

I know how to get rid of those stray cats.
How?

I'm hoping I can learn more about voice from strangers, friends, family, co-workers, etc. and improve the voice and dialogue of the characters in my stories. I plan to do this for 30 days, starting today. Here's the first installment of Say What. I overheard someone say this at work during a presentation this morning: "Death brings on the smell of money."
