Do the Write Thing

Writer’s block has you in a chokehold, and you spend many a night writhing naked on the kitchen floor, awaiting some flare of inspiration. The ceiling lights shine down on you like football-stadium floodlights, and for the pity of the gods, you put on a spectacular show of self-flagellation, perfected down to the last run of spittle at the mouth. Don’t you know that the deities watch the late-night telenudies and will therefore not heed your petition for help?
