Dear Inspiration,
I am writing to request the whereabouts of your presence, following your recent dissapearance I have - to put it bluntly - not had any Inspiration.
I have to ask; are you on holiday? Why? Don't you like your job? Is it because I use you too much? Do I... Need to take you to the repair shop? I'd be happy to. All you have to do is ask, I've looked around and it doesn't cost that much, just a few of my brain cells. Or maybe it's because you feel you are mistreated, I haven't ever done anything that bad to you, have I? Oh, wait, if it was the time I used your idea to kill off your favourite character, then I'm sorry, truly. Maybe there'll be a sequel, one with him as the main character. Do you like that idea?
I guess the only other possible answer is, that you're... yo-you're dead. Does Inspiration die? I think, that if I never get your reply, then it does. Inspiration dies.
But it can't. There isn't an Inspiration replacement shop that I know of. I doubt that any other writers have heard of one either. If you really have died... Then I guess I'll never write again, because nothing I write will ever be worth anything without you by my side. Without you giving me the next brilliant idea,and me claiming it as my own as I pour the essence of your Inspiration into words, without you whispering new plots and suggestions into my ears annoyingly whilst I'm in the middle of a climax, without you guiding my stories every step of the way whether you like them or not, as a writer I am nothing.
Please don't let it be true, at least reply if you won't come back, at least let me know, and not suffer the pain of not knowing for eternity. Or... If I'm lucky, you'll come back. You'll forgive me for whatever terrible thing I've done. Or, stupidly you're on your way right now, and you'll say to me; "I was only out buying cheese." and laugh while you hug me. I'll reply; "Oh I missed you so much, could you give me an idea right this instance?" and flutter my eyelashes, "hang on... Inspiration, you have NEVER eaten anything in your life..."
But I'll forget it all, as long as you never leave me alone again.
Please, come back.
~Tinkem.
Oh, and if you are buying cheese, could you buy me some too?
