Love it, great material here. I love the Gift Wrapper one the best. A woman is a gift. What a smart man you overheard. Enjoyed reading it all very much.
This is an idea toolbox for creative writers. I use eavesdropping as a resource for character development and this blog is a repository for little gems of conversation I've heard. Don't worry, I'm not using electronic devices or crawling under window sills yet. Just fine-tuning my observation skills in public places to learn about human nature every day. Stop by, maybe you'll find inspiration in something I've overheard!
For our inaugural eve dinner, we hop over to Ruby's Diner down the street for Super Burgers--hamburgers served on grilled Parmesan toast with avocado and the usual fixings. Tasty. Where ever I've gone today while doing errands, the air is simply palp...
I am spending the evening around some of my favorite friends: books. Whether I enter a big box bookseller like Barnes and Noble or a small cramped hole in the wall with stacks and stacks of dusty books, I feel excited and anxious at once. All the ...
I am an all-day breakfast eater; I'll take eggs or pancakes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Tonight, I stand in line with the dinner crowd at Archibald's, a local diner that serves delicious flame broiled burgers and seasoned fries. Sizzles and pops...
I am one of those silly people who buys a Christmas tree at the crack of December's dawn. I know it will be stiff and crispy by the 25th, but I can't be reasoned with. The tip of my nose tingles with cold tonight as fog rolls in. The moving misty ...
I am eating rotisserie chicken and hummus for dinner at a casual Mediterranean restaurant. The decor is brightened with vibrant colors I'd never think to combine - lime green, bright red, orange and deep brown. I realize how boring my home's walls a...
I am at Best Buy electronics browsing all the gadgets I cannot afford. I'm amazed at the ingenuity on display here; everything is smaller, better, faster, cooler. I remember when my first cell phone weighed about one pound. Now, a few ounces in your ...

Great job !
biancaThanks for joining my neighborhood. I think you have a great blog & i enjoyed browsing it as well = )
NickCI absolutely love this idea. I'm forever eaves dropping for character ideas and general insights into human nature. My failing is that I've too short a memory to remember conversations for long. I'm impressed that you've managed not only to remember, but to make a whole blog from it. Tiny scenelets, flashes of character shown in minute details. Great stuff.
ImagineImagineInteresting blog, amusing to read. Very well pulled together. Like conversations overheard, very, very interesting blog.
DebI love everything about this blog -- how it's written, the design, the concept.

Roy BurkheadI've always been a fan of eavesdropping for character development. Looking forward to reading through your blog. A few days ago, I posted on my blog a conversation I stoled from a restaurant. :-)
Barbara A. ClarkSo creative and entertaining! Keep up the good work!
The SparrowThe sparrow blinks in awe at so many lovely comments. Ruffles his feathers... and then thinks that the author wouldn't mind another rating of 10 :)
BT CassidyFntastic blog- I also use eavesdropping as a constant source of writing material. from developing dialog to creating more realistic charcters, eavesdropping is the way to go.
John CaversThe blog is presented well for the reader with lots of interesting things. I think the overall design is very appealing. Good articles.
DescartesI like the look, feel, and whole idea of your blog. I can easily see a book like PostSecrets coming out of these random encounters with strangers. Great stuff.
Jack SparrowInteresting Blog...

Suahda MaideenWonderful idea to start a weekly meme for others to end to their own likinig.
I love your blog.
dmeemaigreat stumbling on your blog! it's impressive how an everyday thing like 'eavesdropping' and perhaps people watching can turn into a developmental idea such that it can be used for creative writing- and why not? fiction is only as good when based on some truth and reality. gives readers something to relate with.... truly inspiring especially for a frustrated writer like me! well done!
Mr. GrudgeExcellent blog...full of heartfelt and well written stories. This blog is a regular stop for me.
fedorGreat storeis, absolutely love them.

dee grahamI really enjoy reading this blog. Makes me glad I love to write
B N SullivanThis is one of my all-time favorite blogs. Adds a whole new meaning to "telling it like it is." It is unique, but I expect that Vienne's Eavesdrop Writer will engender many copy-cats over time.
