I'm convinced that there are three types of people. The Daedalus, the Icarus, and the Apollo. One who warns of danger, one who flies to danger, and one who is the danger.

Sometimes, when I can't think of anything to write, I put my playlist on shuffle and write like a paragraph based on a song title. I go from staring at a blank page and losing my mind to writing angst and losing my mind. Much more entertaining:)
