Dear Writer Brain,

I Did. Not. Need. a full-fledged eco-activist endangered gorilla/zombie story to burst full-fledged into my mind. Really. I have one writing project that I'm barely able to keep up with the required words for, another that I'm thisclose to finishing, a third that I'm collaborating on with another person that I really need to get ( Read more... )
