A mind is for changing

Sitting here in the kitchen with papers, notebooks and other writing devices stacked to tipping point - yeah, I'm in trouble at home - I was tidying up the synopsis for One Hit Is All It Takes and like a bolt of lightning, the title just seemed so wrong. For the want of breaking the deadlock in the head, I switched it back to it's original title of Almost Human and I'll be damned if the whole thing flows like a river going downstream.

It's a good feeling. It sat OK for a while but now I'm nearly at the end and it may have a life other than the one on the operating table, it's important to get these things right. If you're a writer and happen to be reading, don't be afraid to destroy things you create. Sometimes when you're building things, you need really strong scaffolding to get where you're going.
