Distraction lurks behind my every train of thought, waiting to pounce and bring new imaginings to a premature end... F... SAKE! #WritingCommunity #WritersBlock #help

My #WritingRecipe: alliteration abound; an unknown quantity of deliberate ambiguity; a smattering of similes like raindrops on a window; a pinch of melancholy; & lashings of inspiration from the wonders of nature. Share recipes #WritingCommunity. #FridayFeeling #FridayThoughts
