Late afternoon light beckons me to get out and capture something random and beautiful. The lot next door is an open field with some ancient-looking docks at the edge of the canal. Good n rusty, forgotten and decaying. This is a rare find in Miami. Tiny yellow wildflowers sprouted up through the brush and debris, dog poo landmines abound. Flip-flops, a bad idea.

I did not feed it, or love it properly. The writing bug has left me. The ideas continue to flow but the premise on which to write is still undecided. The pressure and commitment required evokes an icky fear in the perfectionist in me. After spilling out a 2,000 word outline, I realized I was already bored with my story. Gotta go deep to make that sort of thing worth my time.
Blogs are easier. Here it's my world and random inconsistency is the general idea.
That's all for now. My fingers are sore from wrapping gifts. My favorite thing to do is get in the zone and wrap-wrap-wrap... then see a pile of unlabeled, now-mystery gifts. Good times!
