I've been sitting here at the computer staring at it for about 10 minutes  Is this what writers block is to all you authors out there? Not like I'm creating anything that will be talked about, reviewed, commented on or anything like what you all put out there day after day. I'm sure the Writers Circle has a ton of topics on how to get over writers block and then I think of all the interviews Cia has done where she asks Authors what they do to tackle this hurdle or get in the mood .

Just is there one for writing blogs?  

Well something happened here the other day that I guess it isn't strange anymore when you live in a big city. It is sad that you become accustomed too it and don't really have a strong reaction to it either. A guy was shot in the neck in a gangland execution style shooting about 100 m from my home . After the guy hit the ground the shooter(s) took off and the shot guy thought he could get in his truck and drive himself to the hospital  Not such a good idea, as he only made it half way there. Surprisingly he survived and is being 'uncooperative with the police' Wonder if @Krista will come to visit me now?  

Well you look at that, I got over my writers block  

Monday, Cia was in like a tsunami and flooded us with an all new Classic Author Feature. And if you knew this author, he was a bit like of a tsunami  

That meant that Cia came back like a hurricane on Wednesday to give us the Classic Author Excerpt:

Not to forget our Pacific friends, Myr blew in like a typhoon on Thursday and showered us with a new Grammar Guide:

Friday, Aditus hailed down upon our wee heads 2 1/2 new prompts :

Finally on Saturday, the skies darkened, the wind picked up and I thought Armageddon had started  But no, something equally scary and frightening was addressed by Comsie:

Word of the Day you say:

plaudit, paean, pugilism, carp, gambol, cosmeticize, minutia

Goals are in the final week of the month of April, shall we push for a strong finish? Oh wait, we better get @Myr to check on this  4300 new chapters a month!!!
