New day – the blank, stark white computer screen flashes in front of me – Oh No! It’s the beginning of a new chapter which is always the hardest for me. Where should I start this scene?

Then I’m back facing that blank white page with the little black blinking cursor. It calls to me to give him some exercise and let him hop across the page as quickly as my nimble fingers can fly across my keyboard – but alas – I’m stumped.

Your turn…
