I get it. Sometimes your back’s against the wall. Your creativity is dead as a doornail. You feel like you’re just spinning your wheels. You’ll never get it done, but you never say never.
It’s the eleventh hour. Still, you know patience is a virtue. So, you put your best foot forward and power through. No pain, no gain, you tell yourself. A glance out the window, and you notice it’s raining cats and dogs.
UGH! Stop it, you tell yourself. Get back on track. You decide to delete everything you’ve written and start from scratch.
But wait. Is that the light at the end of the tunnel? It’s a strategy that’s older than dirt. But you’re at the end of the road, so you take one for the team.
Eventually, it happens. It seems too good to be true. You made it to the finish line. You’re on cloud nine. All your work has paid off. You begin crying like a baby.
It’s Super Bowl Sunday. Or, depending on your philosophical bent, The Big Game Sunday. There are LOTS of interviews. And LOTS of cliches.
A well-timed cliche in your writing can be effective. But I try to avoid them like the plague.
I’d like to thank my team and family for supporting me. And you for tagging along.
