PMS & The Writing Mind

Submitted by Dee Tenorio on Tue, 2008-05-20 06:17.

Throughout time, there have been women story tellers and writers. They weren't always published, but they existed. And for as long as there have been stories, there has been PMS. True, some women handle their PMS with ease. Others have discomfort, but get on with their lives.
And then there are women like me.
You know who you are. For two solid weeks, you grow increasingly unstable. Slightly nuts. Impressively cranky. Some might use the word rabid. (But only those who are unwise and enjoy violence.) The chips and the sour cream might as well be on tap and the candy flows like butter. The words, which you're more inclined to steal time to listen to because everyone and every thing is getting on your last damn nerve, soothe your tormented senses. PMS is, occasionally, good for us.
