A Keytastrophe Like No Other





                It has happened again. It wasn’t by choice, it never is. But somehow, someway, I always end up finding myself in deep trouble that seems to have no end.

My fingers keep missing the mark. I try, but I keep failing. This is torment of the most awful sort. What sort of writer cannot write? And yet there I was, a self-proclaimed writer, who, you guessed it, could not write.

There’s more to this story. I was with drunken fingers on a dancing keyboard with roughly 4000 words to write and only a few hours to do it in. Normally, that amount of words in that amount of time would be a breeze; but now, it was a hurricane, and I don’t mean that in a good way.

How did I get there? And why were the words “Help me!” repeating in my mind?



It all started when a friend asked me to help him out.
