Thanks rcentros and GMW.

rcentros, I did try the "write something else" thing. It certainly got the creative juices flowing. However, that's the story (now several stories) that is breeding like bunnies. So far it's a nice family of bunnies - not like the killer bunny from Monty Python's Holy Grail. Yet.

GMW I love that aphorism from Sontag. She's absolutely spot on, of course. I can also identify with the shower epiphany.

I now try to write all my eureka moments (or even only vaguely eureka-ish) either into my notebook or into my phone's notes app. It doesn't always work, of course. Currently I have a note saying "reindeer on the roof" which seemed noteworthy when I wrote it (??) but now, for the life of me, I can't remember why. I can't bring myself to delete that either.
