Sometimes, you have to wait in ambush for the next idea to appear.

And they come from the most unexpected places. Nowadays I am furiously scribbling down notes, hoping to capture ideas as they float about in my slightly strained mind.

Unfortunately, I left my dictaphone back home, so it is back to pen and paper…it is funny how unused to writing with a pen I am nowadays.

But I am waiting in ambush for ideas on writing to come my way, and strangely enough, they are coming by pretty readily. If only this continues to happen when I am back to my normal writing schedule…..
