Okay, so it doesn’t quite have the same ring as a van down by the river, but it is Friday and it’s all I’ve got. The first day of May, the first day of the #MayWriteAway challenge, Karaoke night with the girls and beer. Oh, I do love a Friday.

We have been living in our RV for a little over two weeks now. Friends and family might be surprised to learn that I actually really like it. We now live in a new, 33 foot pull-behind and, to date, I haven’t had any thoughts of running away or setting the entire thing ablaze. I know many of you have probably lost money on the betting pool. I apologize.

One of the most frequent questions I receive as an editor, writer and owner of an online publication is, “I can’t think of anything to write… how do you come up with things to write about?” And my answer is about as frustrating as the teacher who told you to look up a word in the dictionary when you asked her how it was spelled.

“Just write.”

But, BUT how can I write when I don’t know what to write about?

“Just write.”

BUT every time I sit down to write, nothing comes to me and I just stare at the screen.

“Just write.”

*Insert shaking fists and cursing*

Sometimes, I am the one shaking my fist and cursing at myself.
