Feeling write-y


Itchin’. My fingers are itchin’ to write sommit. But they can’t do it without my brain. Where’s my brain? Where’s my head? C’MON BRAIN! Tell my fingers what to do. C’mon eyes! Give my brain sommit to think about so it can tell my fingers what to do. What do I have to do to get through to you lot? We want to write sommit here. We’re feeling creative. Channel. Channel. Maybe they are all feeling unloved. Forgotten. Taken for granted. OK, loving kindness meditation sending out some vibes. I love you eyes. I love you brain. I love you fingers. Anything? Look out the window, eyes. Maybe the muse is walking by. Typing. Typing. Typing…nothing. Doodle in your Molskine. What does it look like? Does it look like sommit to write about? Damn! Big breath. OK, now you’re ready to write. Readyyyyyyyyyyy GO! Damn!

Yes, love that empty page feeling! Hope it passes away! Have you read any of Natalie Goldberg's books on writing? Lots of ideas for freeing up what she calls the Black Cat.
I love your header photo - is it n Aytthuya in Thailand?:)

Niamh, I knew you'd recognise my header pic. Yes, it's Ayutthuya and I enjoyed an endulgent hour or so of nostalgia in searching through my old photos before choosing that one.

How's it going in Thailand? Have you caught up with any old friends? Wish I was there!
