Unexpected Inspiration
I’ve spoken at length about writer’s block quite often and how I find it hard to get any inspiration at times. The other night as unexpectedly as if I’d found myself participating in rv towing I found myself writing.
I wrote, by hand, about six pages of something that was completely unrelated to anything that I’d currently been trying to work on. It flowed from my pen almost as if I were channeling it. I read it the next morning and was floored by the content because it’s not something I generally write. I recognized one of the characters as one I’d written about a few years ago. I’d been mapping out his world and it’s political environment and some of his history, and here was a scene that I had glanced around because, frankly, it’s hard for me to write things involving sex at times, and here was a scene where not only was their sex, but multiple partners. However, I’m taking it as a good sign that my muse is coming back, even if she is being more than a little perverse.
