After all there are only so many ways to describe the color brown.
Is that brown brown? Dull, insipid, *mud* brown? Or brown the shade of the smoothest milk chocolate, brown?

Anyhoo, to the question at hand. I know I've repeated a phrase in more than one story. It happens most frequently when I'm working on more than one story at a time. Either I'm taking a break from a longer story or something in the longer piece sparks the idea for the second, but I often find myself putting a similar phrase in both. In fact, it might be the phrase itself that spawns the second story. If I could remember the phrase(s) at the moment, I would point out how, but my memory wouldn't give it up on demand. Cursed thing.
