This secret's magic, moon magic - beware
For your lover will follow, know your mind -
The stains of her blood without its fare
Show forever useless love but still bind.
Have no secrets from your lover some say
'Moon show your other face; what do you hide?'

Vampire Thought of the Day

Hi my friends... I am running into a problem with the next part of the story ... I don't know where it is!

In the past I only had to sit at the keyboard and the story flew out of my mind and onto the page. Now I sit there and have some hazy bits of ideas but the movie screen in my mind is blank. I'm not sure what to do about this. Maybe the magic will come back and maybe it won't. I have no past experience with this.

I don't know when or if the story in my head will begin again. I want to "keep my finger in the checker" and keep this blog going in case some inspiration strikes me.  I will put on a quote or poem or thought and hope my mind gets in gear. I apologize for this gap in my imagination. I think of you and send you good wishes for your health and well being every day.

And now for the thought of the day:

“Mom. I have something to tell you. I’m undead. Now, I know you may have some preconceived notions about the undead. I know you may not be comfortable with the idea of me being undead. But I’m here to tell you that undead are just like you and me … well, okay. Possibly more like me than you.”  

Cassandra Clare - City of Ashes
