wake up

Hands to keyboard before fully awake. Trying to break the blog writing block. Get the words out before the critical editor in your head notices what you're doing. Don't start reading. Yet. Don't get distracted. Write. What do you want to say? What do you need to say? Figure it out. Go.

On Saturday night I sat down at a local, independent coffee house to draft what I thought was a relatively brief blog entry, and I ended up writing six pages nonstop, pages that may turn into an article or perhaps part of the introduction to my book. Similarly, today the ideas are flying out of my brain and onto the screen.

I don't know where this writing mania is coming from, but I like it.

Indeed, GZombie, you seem to be in such a writing spurt that you're commenting on your own post! Congrats1 Hope it keeps going!

Indeed, hope it keeps going!

Could you pass on some of your inspiration to me? I'm supposed to be writing a paper that I'm giving in less than three weeks, and I'm really not feeling it. I'm jealous!
