D. Powell asked Stuart Aken:

I see that you never get writers block? I don't either. What I get, that has plagued me for my life of 73 years is butt-block. The ability to sit butt in char and write.

Stuart Aken Sorry for the delay in response. I had a hard drive die on the PC and a break already booked following its repair. Only now am I getting things back to normal!
I agree about that ability to sit and get on with it. It's become more physically difficult now I have ostioarthritis in my back that demands I move more frequently. Still, I set the timer and travel up and down the stairs twice, stare out of the back window into the distance to rest these aged eyes, and then sit down and continue. But there are also times I'm more distracted and allow the current rotten political situation to get the better of me.
But, yesterday, I edited a couple of short stories, and actually sent one off to a mag! Progress, of sorts.
