They usually prefer a story to a book but if I'm tired I'll be "there was this guy who robbed a bank...and Dana took his famous racing car and drove...chased the guy...in his car...the guy zoomed ahead...in his car...the chase continued..."<br /><br />"Dad," comes the interruption as I half doze off and forget the story line. "I think I want you to read a book instead."<br /><br />Writer's block is like a batting slope -- as you fixate on it and try to work out of it it just goes and becomes worse. You just have to patiently wait for an idea to come and when it does, the words will flow...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
