I wish I could tell you that an idea suddenly dawned upon me and all the pieces suddenly fit together producing a story I would love to write.

The truth couldn’t be further away.

Whenever I got stuck I found myself going back to Udemy, to the course.

Toward the end of it, they listed a few prompts to build a story skeleton.

And there it was.

A few words on the screen caught my eye.

Suddenly the cogs in my mind went at super speed, churning out ideas upon ideas.

My heart fluttered, and my body warmed up. Excitement filled up in me like air in a balloon.

My story was going to be about an author allergic to the sun!
