The Aging Gremlin

Well, the delusions of literary grandeur have started up again.

A worrisomely fast return, I admit. My next writing project isn’t due until May 31, but I’ve already built it up in my head as publishing gold.

While I appreciate the aging Gremlin of Optimism that rattles around in my head, it gets harder and harder feeding the old coot.

Until tomorrow…

Delusions of Quirkiness

Mental hurdles.

Everyone has them. Every writer, every doctor, every stay-at-home mom, every young ‘un, every oldster. Everybody.

Some just have more than most.

I, for instance, am thoroughly convinced that there’s a little man in my head whose sole job is to place brightly painted, wooden hurdles in whatever path I choose. (FYI: He wears a striped nautical turtleneck and puffs incessantly on a Brigham pipe… Delusions of grandeur are boring. Try delusions of colorful quirkiness to really get your blood pumping.)

Anyhow, I often tire of leaping the old mental hurdles.

Sometimes I just have to remind myself that I’m not the only one out there face-planting on life’s track every freaking day.

Ok, reminder over. I feel better now. On with your day.

Until tomorrow…
