There are lots of terrific writers here at WeWriWa ~ come see for yourself!!!
I was debating on which story to select a snippet from for this week and I decided on another from The Sandman novella.
I was still a mess six months after the
accident but I was at least trying to write again. Running was still out the
question, Christ, walking was barely in the sentence, but I was at least able
to get myself around enough to be left alone during the day without a nurse or
an aide.
I’ll let
you in on a little secret about writers, we like to be alone. No, not all the
time and no not on a permanent basis, but we do need the time and privacy to
wander around in our own heads. It’s like panning for gold in there and you can
only do that when you are alone. I hadn’t been alone in months and I was
starting to feel like a rat with its leg caught in a trap and for a few weeks,
gnawing it off seemed like a viable option.
