Twas night... no... MORNING!
Dazzling daylight drowned Dana,
as she... as she... what?
Perfect interpretation of how writer's block affects writing. Funny.

This was an absolute masterpiece. "Of mice and men" - that quote is familiar to many, and I liked your "Of rats and women" variation. The artistic presentation deserves an Oscar. Works presented like this stand out and appeal to the public right away. I tried this type of presentation in my last haiku.
This one is so clever - the writer is trying to say something, mumbling and gets totally lost in the process, forgetting what he was saying. Last line is precious
as she... as she... what?
A very entertaining and professionally presented composition, I wish you luck in the booths.
Love, Y.

Your author's notes were fun to read too...the brain does tend to ramble on when it cannot come up with some sort of inspiration. Rats!!!! I liked your "D" alliteration. Fun poem.

The story line is great, but your author notes run on at infinitum. I trust that somewhere along that continuous railroad line of words you unblock your writer's block. Good luck in the contest; you are almost there!

Sounds heavy...what I do is leave the house and do something else. The muse is like a naughty child, if ignored she will do something to get attention.

I really hate that sudden blank that suddenly appears as the letters stop appearing on the screen. This effort strikes painfully close to home.
However, I am looking forward to the next installment of the exciting tale begun in the Author Notes. Gripping drama -- er, tragedy, er...Huh? ;)

Wow!! This is quite clever. I love the play on "of mice and men" in the title. Then you actually demonsrate writers block as the poor writer attempts to get an openibg sentence out!! The authors notes were killer. A rambling bunch of nothingness that does sound pretty good!!!
