The Writing Moment

I had a strong and productive writing session yesterday. But being so involved, my sense of time evaporated. I found myself leaving the coffee shop an hour later than usual.

I couldn’t go directly home, but had to go buy light bulbs. Finishing with that errand, I jumped into the car to head home. By now, I was an hour and a half later than usual.

My phone rang. It was my wife. “What’s up?” I asked.

“Where are you?” she answered. “You’re much later than your usual time. I’m calling to see if you’re dead or unconscious in a hospital.”

“You called to see if I was dead or unconscious?” I laughed.

She did not.

  1. What if you were and you still answered the phone?! Glad the writing is going well–same here. I’ve decided to try and write one new short story a week and so far I’ve been meeting the challenge! By summer, I should have a new collection!

    1. Wow, hats off to you, my friend. Quite a challenge. But I’m not surprised at all that your fertile imagination, keen observation talents, writing skills, crazy life, and discipline have you delivering. Looking forward to that collection. Cheers
