Twas the Blog before Christmas

Twas the night before Christmas
And on my own blog
No words would appear
As I fought through my slog

Of editing and blogging
About writing and tips
On characters, plots,
Mary Sues and ships

When out in the living room
Arose such a clatter
I sprang from keyboard
To see what was the matter

Friends and well wishers
With dogs and with gifts
Appeared to eat food
In waves and in shifts

We chatted and laughed
About Christmases past
We ate and we played
As time went by fast

Then I looked at the clock
As I turned from the fun
My blog was unfinished!
I must get it done!

I nodded and smiled
And hugged them goodbye
I petted their dogs
As Christmas drew nigh

I slid into my seat
And let me be frank
I stared at my screen
​And just drew a blank.

So now I sit here
Consumed by my fright
Merry Christmas to all
I'll be better tomorrow night.

Hope you have a wonderful night and a great Christmas. Tomorrow. Unless you're in the Netherlands. Have a good one now, then.

Now more than ever, Be Excellent to Each Other.
