Writer’s Coup (or Coup d’Ecrire)

I’m not having writer’s block.  I’m in the middle of a bloody coup.  I can write everything but what I’m supposed to be writing.  What gives?

So far I’ve sent some witty Tweets about zombies, I’ve posted a comment on a website, I’ve made some notes about a story I’m working on, and I’m writing this blog post…but nothing overly useful otherwise.  Sigh.  And my toe hurts from going hard on the treadmill today on a level 15 incline.  Sigh.

I think I need to stop trying so hard and instead work on my recap of this week’s Doctor Who recap for DarkMedia.com.  Yes, I’m fortunate enough to get advance screeners of the upcoming episodes…which is awesome, until you realize you can’t actually talk to anyone about how awesome the episode is.  Then you feel isolated, like someone with a huge secret who is just bursting at the seams to tell the secret.  Again, sigh.  I’m sighing because the new episode, “Hide,” is BLOODY AMAZING!!  I’m saying BLOODY and I’m not British!!! (and yes, that was the second “bloody” of the post…but Doctor Who inspired a theme)

However, all is for not.  Everything will come together as planned.  It will just happen in its own special way.  You can’t force writing.  It just has to happen.
