Small talk makes things easier and often clears a path for me to get what I desire from people.

What is small talk?

It’s subjective. It can be a casual talk on the weather, the latest handbag, or a never-ending stupid topic — pregnant chad. For instance, talking about things outside our business topics or preferred interest.

For me, small talk drains my energy and often freezes my spirit. Yet, I use her to get things done.

“Mom, you’re lucky.”

The children’s faces lighted up with an unexpected airplane seat upgrade.

“She doesn’t attend children’s party.” I do, but not every year.

Do you enjoy small talk?

I mean talking about the weather and celebrity mismatched sandals. Or, a never-ending what Junior Kat is doing for her first birthday.

I doubt many writers are social butterflies, but I bet they can party with their written words.
