Re: OT: How do I open the floodgates?
I too wrote my first story as a child ~ a fantasy about space travel ~ and the Muse keeps picking at me when I give up on her. Life overwhelmed, lack of encouragement made me lose faith in myself, but the Muse refused to lie still forever. She's back and this time will not be silenced.

Your Muse appears to be calling you out now ~ the ideas are there, just jot them down ~ I keep my most personal and deep seated thoughts and kernels for stories and poems in my password protected laptop file; and my little spiral journal holds observations as I walk at lunch, snippets of conversation, ersatz ideas in company with 'to do' items and rune casting ~ each individually or in combination fodder for stories or poems, that I work on sometimes in the grocery line or at other odd moments.

I am here, You are here, so We Are Writers ~ *Thumbsup*

Keep Writing!
Kate
