I'm Zippy

Last night I had an idea, wrote a few paragraphs. Today I did some research. I am writing a new story. I'm still in the upbeat, optimistic beginning phase. The possibilities of a story are never as great as at the very beginning. As soon as I make a decision, they start shutting off by the dozen. The more work I do for the story, the less optimism I have for it. It inevitable grows up to mock and jeer at me, angry at me for making it such an ugly, miserable thing.

My ink pads came in the mail today. I'd wanted to make Happy Banned Book Week! bookmarks for my friends, but the week is over. My cat managed, while I wasn't looking, to get all three of her paws onto the black ink pad. Their are paw prints all over the apartment now. I can't cope with the thought of cleaning.
