In search of inspiration, I considered today some stories that I’ve not written.
I’ve never written a story about Bill Gates and how he is an evil mastermind taking over the world.
I’ve never written a story with a protagonist thinking he’s an apple.
I’ve never written a story about the stain on my trousers and how it came from a substance very much like tooth paste dropping through a worm hole and leeching on to my trousers just as I was crossing the road.
I’ve never written a story about a Norwegian, fifty year old, male ballet dancer who has retired to become a shoemaker in Iceland, but who is constantly visited by the ghost of H. P. Lovecraft.
I thought I would never write any of those stories, but now in a small way I have.

/ February 16, 2014Yup, now you have…though I would be interested in reading more about the Norwegian ballet dancer turned shoemaker. 😉
