Thank you love!!! I'm having trouble freewriting lately, as I'm sure you can see. I start and stop many times before I finally abandon the stories. When one does struggle its way out, it's always the same story in some way.

Um, no, I can not see that you're having trouble freewriting, because you always freewrite so memorably and eloquently!
I always write the same story - you noticed this during NaNoWriMo and March Madness when the dead weren't really dead (even a dog whose death was faked). If we don't witness a death (or even the body), then I'm gonna imagine my lost loved one is still alive somewhere.... in cognito, in Witness Protection, somewhere, somehow. Which is silly. If they cannot or will not communicate with me, they may as well be dead - and in fact, if we do survive death of the body, my multi-tasking sister may be able to visit her daughters in spirt and me as well because Kelly was the Wunderkind....
Sorry, as always, I digress.
Do you write the same story over and over again? I think you're fresh and original, always!
The same message, or a variation of the same message, yes.
I remember when I could truly just write the words that popped into my head, all the while thinking I was writing a bunch of nonsense. But when I read the things over, they miraculously made sense! I was nearly always successful, and just as often very surprised by my story. Digression was the point for me, and what drew me to your freewrites, which were (are) always marvelous. I don't think you know where you are going when you start to write. You start at anchor, and set sail to parts unknown to you. When I truly freewrite, my stories are full of idioms and colloquialisms. No more. I miss writing so freely. Once in a blue moon I pull it off, but it's very rare.
Mine weren't all about the new world order or what to do about it, as they are now in some way.

I'll stay away from prophets and bibles, thank you, but if that's your thing, go for it. We've gone in for far too much of that on this planet if you ask me, and look where it has gotten us. Blowing up human beings planet-wide, good intentions turned to evil acts, slavery for all.
Whenever I begin to read something you have written, I know I'm in for quite a ride, and will be left with both answers and questions. Delightful! Hey, go read the story I just posted for hive garden. I like it (could be tidied up), but it is on my usual subject.
No, prophets and Bibles are not my thing - Ehrman is famous for explaining why the Bible is myth.
(You know I'm agnostic, or maybe Deist, but that I pray out of habit 'just in case' it has efficacy)....
Off to walk dogs - then come back to your garden post.
