hell fire and brimstone

Writing this just isnt working for me, today I can't even spell my name right.  I'm going to work early to try and shake off what ever you writers get when the bottom falls out.
Thanks for trying to understand!
(I have a feeling that tea and a chocolate muffin might do the trick :))

and then guess what?

I spent an entire day thinking up bits and pieces for the plot and stuff and found myself devoid of any fresh thoughts ideas, flat so I read my new book and came up with another idea, not one I can use here but for futrure reference.  So back to my current project I'm thinking that maybe I need to read what I've written to get in the mood and get creative...

Aaaaarrrggghhhhhhhhhhhh

So someone once said, "If you wake up writing then you are a writer!"  I'd love to agree, but I woke up thinking 'What a load of crap, why bother!'  I really felt like I'd written a load of rubbish and that it wasn't worth carrying on with.   And after a while of getting my pencil, rubber, sharpener and paper out I played a game of football on my PS3, lost, and wished I hadn't bothered!! But by now my regime had gone out of the window, I seem to be able to write when I have an empty mind, which I know my son's would say is all of the time.........but it I prefer not to have the thoughts of the world on my mind, I don't want to have listened to the news or the weather or the sport or the business news, I want an empty head!  So in a compromise I researched the characters that might feature and then it wasn't so bad.
tomorrow they say is another day........

dry up

So having got myself back on track and convincing myself that it's actually not a bad idea and then having sat down in front of the computer to continue, can't think of a bloody thing to write!
But it is a business so I write anyway shame it isn't what I wanted because it felt good but I'll try again soon.
Frustrating and lonely business this writing. :)

and the fight goes on......

Then you carry on the good fight and it becomes more complicated and the plan goes out of the window and you try to keep it simple and then it doesn't seem so great, but it becomes neccesary to write on just incase it falls back into line or you hope something hits between the eyes and it becomes great again.....

then you fight back!

So having regretted ever starting the brilliant idea that just popped into my head and doing a bit of research and then realising that somebody else has beaten you to it and better than you to boot. I gave up because it sucks!
But today, having researched a bit more and with the help of some red stuff, another idea popped into my head, and I'm back on the road again..... till next time of course :)

and then it hits you.....

Wham just like that an idea pops into your head and you think wow yes that's brilliant and you search for pen pencil paper marker, that confusion just shows you I didn't have anything to write on or with when this light bulb came on.  So frantically searching whilst my brain is in overdrive and I can't begin to write down the original thoughts as I have moved on and have created characters plot and the final words spoken by my hero, signed the film rights, envisage multiple serial books and films and then.....
crap, it just won't work!!!!!!!
Why does somebody have to write and publish my ideas before I do??

Oh well, just a thought, now there's an idea........
