Today, words were easy. Do you know what I mean? As a writer, I am a firm believer that some days I really am better with words than others. Most days, I struggle to see the sentence ahead, and it’s an ongoing struggle to extract intelligent and coherent words from my unfocused mind. However, once in a great while, words are brimming in my brain. I want to use words like taciturn and frivolous and verisimilitude. How can I work them into a sentence on my asinine homework assignment? It’s like having all these tools suddenly at your finger tips, and you are itching to use them to their upmost.
I don’t understand the impetus for these “good writing days.” Is my brain running on something more, am I in a better mood, am I reading more intelligent, verbose works? I wish I knew how to harness these days and use them to my advantage. Today, I have no major writing assignments, but I have 3 stories due later this week. Could I bottle up this way with words and use it later? Please? Maybe words work today simply because I have nothing I am supposed to write about at the moment.
One of my favorite feelings is finding out it’s a “good writing day.” It happens accidentally. You go to form a sentence, and it’s so effortless. Your brain is chugging along merrily, and the homework you dread to write seems to slide from your keyboard onto the page. I just realized this could be one of the nerdier topics I’ve traversed in this blog, but if you, oh brave reader, are a writer, then you know what I mean. I don’t know if it’s universal. Maybe scientists have days when chemistry is a breeze or doctors think diagnosing is a snap. Or maybe it’s just writers; Writers whose brains are begging to be put to use through a well-structured sentence and an accurately assigned adjective. (Look at that ace alliteration!)
Author-itively,

With inhibitions, so go the barriers to good writing. :-)
