Another drop in the lake
Writer’s block, imposter’s syndrome, and ruby-hilted swords.
I look at my hands, and I do not write.
I lay in bed, and I curl up on the floor in front of my mirror. I sit on the 370, and I buy plaster mermaids with starfish in their hair.
Still, I do not write.
I sit with my feet tucked under my thighs and I think,
no one will read this, and I think,
this has been said before. It has all always been said before. With better words. By writers like Nizami Ganjavi and R. K. Narayan and Edith Wharton.
10 Years Ago: Stevie Nicks Embraces Fantasy on ‘In Your Dreams’
On the cover of her 2011 album,
In Your Dreams, Stevie Nicks appears in a flowing black gown, bathed in light, while standing beside a white horse. The image - romantic and whimsical, while still maintaining a foot in the real world - perfectly reflected the songs found on the LP.
Ten years had passed since Nicks’ previous solo album,
Trouble in Shangri-La. With a decade’s worth of thoughts to convey, the singer decided to borrow a page from Led Zeppelin. Much like how the legendary English rockers lived and recorded at Headley Grange, Nicks turned her Southern California mansion into a recording dreamland.
