I've been making ice cream and working. I buggered my hip almost 8 weeks ago and it's been a severe crimp in my style. So, no planting in my flower pots this year so far. And I haven't gone on any road trips, either. I stopped writing for a while and I'm trying to get back in the swing of things. That hasn't gone so well. I feel like I just write gibberish. Ever write and realize that after a bunch of pages you never got to the friggin point? Like everything you just wrote was nothing but the color in the background and not once did you have your characters actually do anything? That's what's been happening to me. There's no "boom" or "hang on, this is gonna be bumpy." Instead, it's la-la-la-la I'm not worried about a plot. Here's a flower. What's your favorite ice cream flavor? I wasn't aware Palahniuk wrote a book about writing. I'd like to check that out. When you say Hannibal, are you referring to the book or the tv show? Because I fell in love with the tv show. It was pure poetry.
