An Ode to Goose
I feel like posting when you don't have anything to say is like riding the highway to the danger zone. Don't worry, I haven't lost that loving feeling for the blog, I'm just moving in slow motion a bit today.
I concur with Jaye. Do you need a shot of excitement and a sour pinch of adrenaline? I would be happy to mix that drink for you. As soon as I finish making the recipe.
We could send you questions to blog about? Like what kind of author would you love to have in your stable? Another Dean Koontz? Janet Evanovitch? Who would be your dream client?

It must be emotion that's taking you over.
So... you're saying you don't feel the need? The need for speed?

Write for me soon, or lose me forever!
