Not Quite The Energizer
Searching for new ideas can at times really stymie a writer--this one in particular. Once I have an idea it is full-steam ahead and I rarely lose pace, but the in between times--the looking for a subject that's new, or that I can spin a fresh angle on takes forever. At least it does to me. Ideas should be as easy as opening an evening newspaper, cruising the net and looking at subject matter. Sometimes it is. More often than not though, a bunny springs to life only to be gunned down by the shotgun of plot entanglements. It starts out looking fresh and fun, only to find it doesn't have enough meat on its bones to make a decent meal much less a full-course meal. I'm at that stage now--ready to shoot some hapless bunnies.
