Logan stared at his laptop, frustrated.
Writer’s block was one thing for someone who wrote fiction; the creative juices were sapped and either time away or a new source of inspiration was needed. But writer’s block for a journalist? That was, in a way, pointless – everything Logan wrote was based on what other people told him, what he found in doing research.
No creativity needed. Find out what happened, when it happened, where it happened, how it happened and why it happened. Then write.
Then again, his interview the day before with Detective Michaela Starnes went nowhere; even when he took things off the record. Logan got the impression she didn’t believe what he was saying and that he was just wasting her time. She obviously didn’t grasp the severity of the situation, what was really going on.
Not that Logan did either, but at least he wasn’t immune to the thought that supernatural things were involved. He suspected Melinda Watkins was killed by a vampire, he’d already heard rumblings of a vampire cult in search of young Cory Blanchard and whenever Wolfram & Hart got involved, things were never entirely normal.
But here Logan sat, ready to write the story his editor so desperately wanted for the morning edition, with nothing.
