DAY 71

STORY #71

Writer's Block

The writer sat hunched over his keyboard, massaging his temples. He’d just written a movie, called “Day of the Animated Cadavers,” and now the studio was at him to make a sequel. Trouble was, he had writer’s block.

Deciding to go for a walk to clear his head, the writer headed out into the countryside. His stroll took him past a churchyard. Tired, he sat, leaning against a mouldery, tilted, marble headstone--and it moved slightly. A hand reached out from the grave…slowly, towards the unsuspecting writer. There was to be a sequel after all, but it wasn’t a movie.
