A bowl of rocks

Sometimes I get so caught up in scenes in my head that I can write for hours without realizing how fast the time is ticking by. But there are other days – other weeks, when the inspiration is just not there. My thoughts go quiet and my mind acts like a stone wall that won’t let me in, and when I reach for my imagination it’s gone awol. I can do many things when this happens. I can wallow in it and waiting for my imagination to come back from wherever its hid itself. I can throw myself at books and tv shows in a tantrum to hide from my imagination. I can turn my back on words entirely and find another passion. Ha! Take that empty brain! But often, this is when I drag out my bowl of rocks and ask my rock words for help.

Creative Writing Challenge #2: Put the words below into a poem or paragraph or short story.

I will be posting what I came up with early next week. If you so desire you can leave me a comment or link up your own post with what you’ve come up with! I’d love to read it.
