Try writing about writer's block!

Tell us your life's story. We could probably come up with something,
on that. Otherwise, try geese flying north early.

What topic did you choose?

The problem with writing is that there are too many good ideas to
write about.

I guess Zachary is writing, so we won't hear from him until after his
assignment is due. Or, maybe we'll just never know (and get no credit
for the idea he plagerized from here ;->).

Yes, the problem isn't really getting good ideas, it's turning
ideas into good stories (novels, poetry, essays, screenplays, etc.).

I happen to know mr. fig, so I'll tell him to write back. I know what you      
mean about good ideas being transformed into good writings. It's most frust-   
rating when you have a good idea and you think you've turned it into a good
piece of writing  ... ,

sorry, minor accident there. contd: and then later discover that it was
actually PRETTY awful. Drives me up the walls, added to the disappointment...

Murder is always a good thing to write about.
When I write my assignments in school, I choose a
funny and strange thing to write about, or a funny murder.
