The Hurt of Not Writing
Yesterday I didn’t write , but I wanted to . This wasn’t writer's block (I have written a piece on how I deal with this here), this was something else.

The Tiny Annoyance
There are many things that are irritating at times, which may also be a slight annoyance at times. This could refer to things, animals, or even people. So we will include Carly Simon’s “You’re So Vain'' just in case anyone takes the words to heart.
