"What shall I write about ?" she demanded.
"You promised to supply the inspiration." "So I will," returned Mabel cheerfully.

"Why don't you write about--" She paused, frowning slightly.

"After all my vaunted promises I'm not able to suggest anything on the spur of the moment," she confessed laughingly.

"Why don't you take some incident in your own life or that of your friends and write a story about it ?" she proposed after a moment's silence.
"I don't believe I could ever write a story," confessed Grace.

"I think I'll write a little discussion about girls and their ideals." "That sounds interesting," commended Mabel.
