Normally, Julia would be sitting peacefully while sipping her coffee and letting the words flow into whichever story she was writing. Today is different, Julia is tense and cannot find any words to type into her computer. She is not comfortable and she fears she will not meet the deadline for a short story that she has been tasked to write. Julia knows that if she misses the deadline her editor will not be happy.
