Block and Tuckle

Like all us here tend to do, I am as of right now suffering from a bad case of Writer's block. Sadly, it's not just on one or two but ALL my stories. Add to that that the flash drive I use for saving them has gone AWOL, costing me a few days' work (I had a backup past that, thank gods) and my writin's not doin' too good.

I'm also re-re-re-rereading Tuck, so that's a bit time consuming as well. I hope to have more of Cassie and Miriam out by mid-February at the latest. Wish me luck, please!

You know, we haven't had a theatrical drabble in a while. Maybe trying one of those would help loosen your block.

Maybe

I have a few title ideas, it's just coming up with a Drabble to match.

- The Color out of Place
-Long Live the Queen
-The Unfortunate (or Freudian) Slip
-Priscilla, Queen of the Desserts
-The Man Bag
-Leonard Nemoy, Eat Your Heart Out!

Which one should I try, then?

Writer's block is not unusual even if one have a dozen stories. There comes a point that ideas just don't come. Relax. Do something else. Eventually you will get an idea that you can work on a new or old story. One story took about thirty-five years for me to write. There were other stories, poems and music that I've written during that time.

Creativity is a haphazard thing and doesn't happen when you are buisy nor does it happen after a long period of creativity or a long period of doing nothing. One needs the clay and the time to mold that pot.

In other words, life goes on.
