And to talk about that sudden bloom of spring in your head, well it has happened to me too. Once I had a deadline to keep. The story had to be there. For our writer's club. It all just unravelled while I sat in a cafe. And I borrowed a pen from the waiter to scribble it all on the back of an envelope. You shoulda seen my grin soon after I held it reading, sort of certain that I had 'something'. But one line from Saul Bellow's book helped. It doesn't happen to us always, does it? Good to meet you, Blair. (I'm here through your page on the ning creative writing community.) Cheers and best! Hi Blair,
