Drabbling is more dangerous than one thinks as unless you keep producing you could end up with the block. Sir Thomas More was only one of many headless scribes.
It’s little known that Sir Walter Raleigh, the father of the bicycle, was also a poet and author. In between drabbling he saw off the Spanish Armada, searched for El Dorado and invented the cigarette and was a dab hand with a cape.
Imprisoned in the Tower his drables fizzled out.
He lost his head quite literally shouting ‘strike man strike’ as the axeman hovered, ending his writer’s block for good.
