Sometimes #depression is like that dreadfully hackneyed #MacGuffin, the long windowless corridor in horror films. The viewer/protagonist sees the end the of corridor clearly. Then starting, from the far end, the the strip lights go out one-by-one creating the illusion that darkness is rushing the victim until the last light goes out. We are told to look at worse miseries and count our blessings. #Mentalhealth doesn’t distribute like that. It’s not like #wealth.

#WildFire, the last book in the #Shetland series by #AnnCleeves features an #autistic #MacGuffin kid.

Trying the #followerPower thing for once.

I title my journals based on changing themes. They provide the cornerstone for the mise en scène of my writing. A month into a new book and I’ve got nothing. So, I’m trying to define the device. Is it a #fetish, a #muse, a #MacGuffin, a #redHerring, a #philosophersStone, a #huntingBlind, an #f(x)? What device do you use to better observe the ineffable? As a quasi “throw away,” what duty have we to identify with it, serve it, thank it, or let it go? #writersBlock #themeBlock #commodification

The entire #Ukraine war is a #macguffin used to explain shortages and hardship in support of the #Great #Reset and feeder agendas.

I was today years old when I got caught up in my first petty #screenwriting debate (argument) on the bird app.
