Really enjoyed this piece Tom. Finding out about the writing process' of authors and how it differs from one individual to another is one of favourite topics to explore. It was really insightful to read how you work on your writing.

Tom,

Your poem is like someone breaking the ice to reveal what we know lies beneath the surface but find something else instead. The way we write must be unique as I believe no two people approach the subject in the same way but we can learn something from each other. I can go for days, even weeks, and feel lethargic and uninspired, then for no reason I hear words spoken which ignite my imagination, or see a sight which holds me or feel a moment of passion to express some pent up emotion. From the moment of revelation I am unstoppable until I have composed what lies in the depths of my mind. I write by hand with a pen, in one swoop and seldom review what I have written.

This poem should arouse some interesting responses.
Thank you for this

Keith
