Sorry I haven't posted for a few days. I've had writer's block. I think I caught it from a toilet seat - or something. It feels like someone let the air out of my tires. Oh, well. The malady inflicts the best of us. Even The Big Hem' (Hemingway) suffered from "the block".
Good writing is generated from a clear and creative mind. If you're off your game there's not much you can do. It's like a baseball player that's in a slump. "He's not seeing the ball." They say.
I'm a big Blue Jays fan. Last year one of my favourite players, Travis Snider, hit a midseason slump and was sent down to the minors and never came back. But this year he's hitting well in the pre-season. Hopefully we'll see him back in the lineup come opening game.
I guess I need to get out in the woods a little more and do my thing. Do some shooting, hiking - jumping in puddles with my rubbers on (boots that is) - and get my mind back in the game. Then perhaps I'll start "Seeing the ball" again.
