A STROKE OF IMAGINATION!

On my way up to Lancaster, Pennsylvania, this weekend to visit the Amish country, I passed an old INSANE ASYLUM.  It was a giant six-story brick building, weathered and long forgotten, and definitely creepy!  It was perched up on a grassy hill like some haunted mansion.  And as I passed by, I couldn't help but wonder what kind of dark secrets and old memories that place held....  For someone like me, the sight of the old asylum was just the jolt of inspiration I needed.  It really got my creepy imagination rolling.
 
Let's see what I make of it.

Writer's Block: I Think Not

Writer's Block is not an option.  It is NOT.  This I have decided.  Sure, I think most writers face times when inspiration seems to be away on vacation or the story's plot seems to have hit a roadblock, but it is the writer's job to persevere through these hard times.  I'm not saying it's easy.  It's not.  After all, I'm experiencing this trial even as I type this post.  But I will get past this.  I WILL.  Quitting is not an option.  Writer's Block is not an option. 

The dream keeps me going.  It pushes me along through these frustrating times.  The dream of being published keeps me writing.  And one day, with God's help, it will all be worth it.
