    -------------- Sorry, only just saw this... Heralde, have you tried setting it aside and writing about something else? Just whatever pops into your head. Then go back to the first project and see if you can look at it afresh. Whenever I get blocked I turn to drawing or Photoshopping; I think...

    ---------------------- Yes exactly! A lot of the early 20th cent Southerners have the same kind of vibe to their work: bittersweet, a little strange, sometimes dark and very focused on internal thoughts. Love it. ------------------
