The Horror

I've been brainstorming for my 'A Close Finish' novel and so far the best of my notes are as follows:

'A close neighbourhood finish something together...quickly. Murderer released...less law. Demented economist'

'Demented economist'? I used to be full of creation…a flourishing blossom of ideas and reflection, if you will. In fact, in primary school when we were asked to perform plays for assembly, I was always asked to orchestrate a symphony of acting bliss and engage in an orgasm of theatrical ecstasy (or think up a story). Now the best idea I can come up with is a ‘demented economist’?! What’s wrong with me? The only reason this entry has so many big words is because I used a thesaurus. DAMN YOU ALCOHOL!!
