The Mindkiller

Fear – it’s one of those funny things where sometimes no-one else can understand what it is you’re afraid of. Fear doesn’t get on well with logic – of course, when they’re not talking at all, it becomes a phobia, but for now it’s just fear, the smaller of the two f’s. (Assuming you spell phobia with an ‘f’)
Recently, the fear that’s hit me has been a lack of inspiration while writing here – seeing the blank “Create New Entry” screen, with all those empty text boxes, and knowing there’s been nothing to write, nothing in the head that’s worth adding to the gestält of Uborka. Not a phobia, but definitely a fear.
Cue the “Boo!”

  1. I find that my best posts are the ones where I have the idea before I come to the computer.
    Just a thought.

  2. no pete, those can be worse! you get a great idea for a post, but when you sit down to write it, you think it sounds crap.
    then the blankness is twice as terrifying.
