Do You Ever?

[ithildin]

Do you ever get these bursts of manic writing, and you just type as fast as you can, trying to capture every little drop? And then, the next day, it's almost like you dreamed it all; it has that same sort of vague ethereal quality in your memory. Except you didn't dream it, you have the proof on your HD. So you read what you wrote the night before and wonder, where in the hell did that all come from?!?

That's me today.

Hard part is getting the family to understand what that is all about...they get real offended thinking Im ignoring them, when its really all about being "possessed" by the Muse.

Oh, do I get that.

When that happens, I look back over what I wrote and, aside from all the red marks, think wha???? Cool. And I pat myself on the back and can't write a blessed word for a few days as I recover.
