Writing stuffses

January 6th 2008 22:39
So. My life is dull, boring, and nothing unusual. I mean, seriously, nothing unusual. Okay, that's utter crap, but hey.

I'm going through an incredible dry period when it comes to writing. Seriously. Even getting up the motivation to post here is an incredible amount of work. I don't have much else to do, though, so I figured I'd write up a post.

Just to have one in for the day. Yay. I miss the days when my writing was really productive. I think the months without computer and internet basically murdered my muse. She'll come back to life eventually, though, I hope.

If not... well, that would suck. Hardcore. I need to read some good books or something, that's what I need to do. Speaking of which, I'm reading It by Stephen King. It's a very good book, and it's helped bring my motivation up a very, very little bit. I don't know what's wrong. Eventually, I'll find my muse again.


Dry spells are perhaps the hardest part of being a writer. When writing is your life, to go through a dry spell is like to half-die. It's a type of suffering that I can't even begin to make it seem real, because the only way to understand, is to be a writer yourself.

Freewriting is perhaps one of the best cures for writer's block. I'm not very good at it though, for two reasons, one of which is the simple fact that I need to muster up the willpower to just sit there and write. Le sigh. Oh well.

There's not much to talk about, so I'll sign off, shall I? Theoretically there'll be a new post soon. Just keep watching
