Something has happened. I started writing today. And something came to me. I don't know where it is going. But I am either titling it Simulacrum or The Allegory of the Cave on Wall Street. It's something new. And it might be horrible. But finally my fingers are moving across my keyboard instead of staying pearched at f and j waiting for inspiration.
