I have said, 'You have to keep a little crazy hidden away in your back pocket just to maintain your sanity.'
OK... so this time the 'crazy' got out of my back pocket and danced around like Jason Mo when he peed on the electric cattle wire.
Good luck. God bless. You're a brave person opening this story.
Oh... by the way... Happy New Year!

"archeological program, and the person in charge (usually they have several doctorates attached to their name) knows so very much of ‘how things were’, and ‘what it says here’. They have good intentions, but honestly; they don’t have a clue." ~ *Helix took some offense to that.* Though most of my ilk of good intention stay far away from being on the small screen as much as possible.
Well if such a conversation with the writing self is counted as crazy, then send me to the nutty house, I often find myself bulleting from my chair ranting in tongues lost in a scene only to find myself starting at a wall blankly wondering why I am not sitting down and writing.
Cruel days, funny to think I wrote on typewriters and in hand until the year 2000 or so. I have not written down a story by hand in nearly 20 years, maybe I should, but that is nothing but the dyslexic nightmare, losing so much in translation.

no offense meant to you Helix - none at all... I still have the first novel I attempted in the closet somewhere. It was 90% done and lies in state as the first founder of any civilization might. It was done on a typewriter. I'm guessing the year would be about 1980.
So far, my ranting has been kept internalized as I wouldn't want to scare anyone.
Thanks for the read...
*hugs...

I've found almost all of my writing, (creative) is done on a piece of paper and it is only the articles that tailspin with the internet and all them facts and doodads.
Half the time I don't even know where the internet is, sort of like those commercials asking parents if they know where their kids are...
But enough procrastinating, I have to get out the last of this year's Christmas articles and since I took some medicine, I can't do a quick cop-out with a whisky eggnog... Or will I?
Either it's going to be A Muppet Family Christmas in review or I'm getting Nogged, we'll see...
Either way, have a happy New Year!

Not all men who drink are poets. Some of us drink because we aren't poets.
Last night I met upon the stair
A little man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today.
Gee how I wish he'd go away!
Yes hmmm is it normal.....( looks around ) to be kinda scared of your muse? She and my cat have been looking at me funny the last few days.
The solution of this problem is trivial and is left as an exercise for the reader.

I think your brain and mine have been hanging around on some of the same street corners. They certainly have some of the same idiosyncrasies. You might notice that last words is a smash-up 'idiots' and 'crasies'.
"I let my mind wander, it never came back. I can't truly say I suffer the lack."
Happy new year, Vixyy. Don't stay up too late.

why is it I feel like I do the same thing with myself... correct that... I do the same thing... If I'm designing something I will sidestep myself so I can look at it from a different view. Come to think of it I do the same when I'm writing.
Nothing wrong with talking with yourself... it looks better to others if you are a ventriloquist... and have a dummy.

Being an author is like being a Toa: being crazy is one of the requirements for the job. Name one novelist who sounded perfectly sane in their interviews.
