Fiction, nonfiction, creativity and corks

I love writing fiction, but I know that it's best to have a nonfiction project to work on when it isn't convenient to work on stories. Right now I'm working only on nonfiction, which is also inconvenient. I'm trying to keep notes and thoughts on some stories so that I can dive in later. I suppose it's best to think of one's self as a vehicle for the creative process to just flow from when the time is right. Some days it's easier to keep the whole process corked than it is on other days. I'm hoping that things will flow quickly when they do flow.

Quote Of The Moment
Many people hear voices when no-one is there. Some of them are called mad and are shut up on rooms where they stare at the walls all day. Others are called writers and they do pretty much the same thing.
