Michael is a well-established and noteworthy author. He has written many short stories, novellas, and novels. But he always had an issue with procrastination. His literary agent, Sarah, whom he has been working with for years, is tired of getting backlash from Michael’s editor and isn’t afraid to let him know it. She starts complaining and fussing at him to finish the first draft of his new short story ahead of schedule. This time, he decided to listen to her and finish the draft before the deadline. But he develops writer’s block and cannot come up with what is in his mind, a good premise for his story. He begins writing. He wrote, “Jacob couldn’t find a single word to write; for days, he sat there in his chair…”. After writing for some time, he stops to see what he wrote, and all he sees on the page is this sentence written repeatedly on the pages. That is when the phone begins to ring. Michael answers and the voice on the other end introduces himself as Williamson. This voice says that he will be taking over for Sarah. Williamson then informs Michael that he died after having a panic attack caused by his writer’s block. That is when things take a turn for the worst.
