#1 – The Writer
I spy my future
Idea sparks; ride the quake…
No plot worth a damn
#2 – The Fear
Spies and plots condemn.
Quaking at shadows; spark gone.
What is fear worth?

This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

What is Fear worth? It can be everything to a writer when no plot stands up or gives off good inspiration. Very intense Haiku. Love them both. Really jarring your question about Fear and its worth.

It’s one that I find fascinating, and terrifying, in equal measure

I don’t feel it as much when I am writing poetry but with prose, it can really frighten me. I am working on trying to understand it. I think it is similar to an actor preparing to go on stage to perform. Most get sick. but then they are in the moment connected to the story, the line, and the character they are inside of. As a writer when we hit that point the fear may just slip away. Fear definitely awakens the senses.

And because of that, I rely on it… for example, I haven’t written a haiku for your prompt words yet. I plan to publish in four hours or so… something will spark between now and then!
