It’s snapshot poem day. Am I writing? Am I brilliant and inspired?

No.

[This charming little gif, known as Deadline, is circulating through various newsrooms in the Bay Area. Reporter Janis Mara sent it to me, in a timely fashion.]

  9. Writers Block

    This is so me, yes I lifted it thanks SB, although my lack of writing is more due to word blocks, trying to find the right word. Oh, and the typing, sometimes I can type and sometimes it comes out garbage, not that garbage just typos up the wazoo. Off…

  11. The deadline animation is brilliant . I too am going to borrow it, hoping that’s OK? I’ve joined the madness of NaNoWriMo and this couldn’t be more relevant.

  12. I want to lift it too — but I don’t know how! 🙁
