Yeah, that didn’t work

That story I had in mind as Les for the Halloween contest just didn’t want to come together.

Most likely, it’s because I’ve hit another motivation wall.  Finding it difficult to open up WordPerfect again.  I’ve been looking for a distraction to keep me occupied for a while, but with limited success.  Many times in the past, that’s been all that got me through one of these slumps.

I do have an idea or two and quite a few stories in progress, though.  I’m going to fiddle with those a little today and see if that can spark me.  Sometimes I do just come out of these slumps by simply opening WordPerfect and getting some words on paper.

No way I have time to finish “The Man I Used to Be” for this year.  Guess I’ll file it away in the half-baked folder with “Within Steven” – another dark Halloween story I’ve fiddled with in a couple of previous years.
