Title: Writers Block
Post by: Alice on May 11, 2005, 09:28:32 PM
I'm having a huge case of writers block right now.  This hasn't happened in about 7 months, so I should be glad it's not every week.  But I'm going crazy.  My body is tired, but my mind wants to get over this before I go to bed.

I don't know if reading inspires you but I can recommend the series by Charlaine Harris that starts with Dead Until Dark. Well, actually I can recommend the first book. I will let you know if the rest are worth reading.

I'm writing another play.

The first one went out only to one person and didn't get much feedback.  Im going to send it out to at least 5 publishers next time.

It's a musical.  A zombie love story.  The hero is a chemist with boyishly good looks.

Seriously, write some in, two reasons:

1) it gets you writing
2) It's not a zombie story without pointless nudity.

p.s. Can I read it?  I'll let you read the Zombie novel I wrote for NaNoWriMo if you let me read your Zombie play!  I do so love Zombie literature!
