Zoey's face turned deranged
by: Barry Boodles
Her nose grew larger, and her feet shrunk to the size of midget tomatoes. "YOU CANNOT ESCAPE IT!" she repeated. I was starting to get really scared, so I X-ed out of Writing.com. Put I X-ed out so quickly, I knocked over my tea and it poured over the laptop.
"That's just great," I said to myself. I picked up a pad an paper so I could write something for Writing.com once I got my laptop fixed. Put my pen stayed still in my hand. What was this nightmare I was experiencing?
...WRITER'S BLOCK!
The dreaded Writer's Block was upon me. Was that what Zoey meant by "YOU CANNOT ESCAPE IT!"? I didn't know. I decided to read something. That helped get my mind off Writer's Block so it could create ideas on its own. Just as I was walking to my bookshelf, however, there was a knock on the door.
"Package for Kelly, Aneeta!" That was my name! Quickly and swiftly, I went to the door. There was a UPS man there, clutching a brown package. "You got a package from Writing.com," he said. "Just sign here."
Quickly I put my signature on the line. "Wait, don't I have to pay?" I asked.
"Nope," the man said. "All expenses payed by a...Zoey Habbdosch."
A chill ran down my spine. That was Zoey.
"Er...thank you, sir," I said quickly, taking the package and closing the door. I locked it with all three locks.
Cautiously, I opened the package...
It was a book. HOW TO ESCAPE WRITER'S BLOCK, by Zoey Habbdosch.
Zoey wrote a book? I didn't know that. I quickly skimmed the first line, and was alarmed by what I read.
DEAR ANEETA KELLY. THIS IS YOUR MENTOR. YOU CANNOT ESCAPE WRITER'S BLOCK, BUT YOU CAN, IF ONLY FOR THE MOMENT.
