Writer's Block

I want to write something, but my mind is a blank. I am sitting at the PC with the ubiquitous empty screen in front of me, wishing I could think of something, anything to write.

But it won't come.

I don't mean LJ stuff - I can waffle on ion this forum for hours, about everything and nothing. No, I want to write something of a story. Not long, necessarily, just a few pages. Maybe just a few paragraphs. But the screen mocks me; an empty and eternal white waste of possibilities. But nothing springs to mind.

Someone suggest a title, subject, opening line or closing line?

Never eat grapes on a hovercraft.

Without my intervention, the world would never have known of the exploits of Reginald Prang.

Closing line

...and they all drowned in a river of lard.

What does this word mean?

That's not much of a story, it's a bit short aint it?

A sinister scarecrow stared sightless into the stormy October sky.
