The block ….

In keeping with the writer’s block theme, here are some quotes I picked from a magazine at my barbershop, where I had gone to see my barber, to get a haircut. Why don’t they call it the haircut shop? Just a thought. So, magazine …> barbershop …> barber …> haircut.

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbour. Catch the tradewinds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” Mark Twain

“If you limit your choices to what seems possible or reasonable, you disconnect yourself from what you truly want, and all that is left is a compromise” – Robert Fritz

Writer’s Block

_________________________________
When it hits a writer
Reality flies away
Into the skies yonder
To endplaces unknown
Encompassing more, and
Reaching the nether world
Surpassing the norms

By the time
Luck strikes again
Or is it sheer
Coincedence that
Kicks in?

Rolling on ….

The ideas are taking shape. Thin wisps of strands of tiny bits of wandering thoughts are coalescing. While the rush has yet to start, the roar in the ears can be heard in the distance.

Moving on …

Creativity is about knowing no bounds. Creative work is at its best when it is sorrounded by infinity, as in sans frontieres. < writers block, writers block>

Labour Day

As luck wold have it, yours truly has been doing lots of head scratching and musing (now a permanent feature of my life). I have been working on some writing projects samples of which will appear here soon. This includes a short story that I intend to submit to the Caine Prize for Africa Writing and a radio play destined for the BBC Playwright Competition (actually the deadline was today, but am gunning for December). And the poems are almost bursting out the inner recesses of my grey matter. Well, hope no damage shall be done.

Yes, there you have it, am going for the big league. But then its just about time.
