This month, I’ve been working my way through the 30 Day Chronic Illness Challenge. Each day, there is a new writing prompt that focus on topics relating to chronic illness and/or living with a chronic illness. The Challenge was created by @cfs_zombie, and I learned about it through Tumblr. I’m almost halfway done with this Challenge and I’m starting to get tired of it. So, this post will contain a lot of photos (just to change things up a bit).

Every day, there is a new writing prompt that focuses on chronic illness and the challenges faced by people who have a chronic illness. Overall, the experience of writing about these topics has been very enlightening for me.

The Gun Seller is a novel written by Hugh Laurie. The cover describes him as “star of the FOX-TV series House.” Those who have watched the show would recognize Hugh Laurie as Dr. Gregory House, the disgruntled, dysfunctional, yet brilliant, man that the other characters both loved and hated.
I couldn’t help but “hear” the voice of Dr. House in the words and thoughts of Thomas Lang, the main character of The Gun Seller. I’m not sure that I would automatically cast the role that way, so to speak, if the cover didn’t connect House to this book by Laurie. The book has nothing at all to do with the show.
