Alice I am pulled to your strange imaginings

Falling endlessly down rabbit holes

We have a group in our"Writing Centre"*

Which honours this, "The Rabbit Hole" it is called

A weekend  full of frenzy writing  to finish that book

Or 50,000 Words, which ever is first. And my friends that is the truth. 

Why do we do this to ourselves,

sit for hours clicking away at our computers?

Producing stories and characters both cruel and true.

Finding great twists in plots of mystery madness 

or strange deathly whispers of souls departed.

We writers are a strange lot for we lose ourselves in words.

Disconnected some of us from the world around us

for those hours of creation sucks  us witless, but willingly we welcome

the stories birth . That moment of the first draft is completed 

we sit satisfied we have reached the impossible again,

another story told. Now the impossible road to travel begins

But not yet... wait let it sit and admire that hard copy for a while.

Where do you now restart to bring this newborn

into the really world? The edit is like an adult coming in

and whipping that newborn into shape as a real story, cruel but true  

One that is adult and understood with all the grammar and spelling fixed.

Pure language with socially correct notitions of our world

of how to write and say things without treading on anyones toes.

Writers are amazing really all the skills we need

Simple skills of  story telling now must be expanded 

to be the Editor and Producer, as well as getting your beautiful story in print

Is  a lot of advertising too. Endless hours of real hard work

It just seems impossible these days for anyone new

to find there way through the maze of the world of story publication.

(*Impossible, unless you just do it yourself on Wattpad)

So Alice here you sit until I get the impossible urge to go beyond this space

the Strength  to develop you past this stage 

of sitting in this Real Wonder World 

this Writers Paradise and be content

with the amazing support we get , the impossible 

reads and votes for our works.
