Well, ideas. Well -w hat do you like? You like garbage for one thing. Write
about that. And not something really duff like "I love Garbage. They make me
happy Rah Rah." Do it in an abstract way, using abstract terms, imagery etc.
Use pronouns instead of proper nouns when referring to people or whatever.
The personal pronoun "You" can mean anything and anyone and it works. This
makes no sense I bet. Sorry.
Or just start to sing. And just keep singing. It's like telling a story in
the end. make up a random tune and let it go. I sing all the time and more
often than not I'm making it up as I go along. I sound like a wanker but I
have plenty of things to write about!
And on the subject of novels, Shell, I can relate! I have one which is
perfectly finished but I can't do anythign with it. It's slightly too
infantile and I have another which is pretty long and pretty enjoybale
(modesty modesty) but I know the ending I just can't think what I'm goign to
do with her to get her there! Aaargh! Someday - maybe when I'm 30 (!!) you
will be reading about Sephora but until then, *sighs*
