I’m doing that thing again…

You know the one… The thing where I’ve started 20 different drafts over the course of the past hour…

I’ll get an idea, start strongly, but inevitably I finish flat.

Picture if it were pen and paper - an overflowing wastebasket full of scratches and scribbles.

It is as if the start of each incomplete story is a false awakening from a half-baked dream with no conclusion.
