Writer's Block

[Djmac1031]

Applause is welcomed.

I realize you're being sarcastic, but I will applaud that.

Because I know how it feels to be stuck. To want to write but the words won't come.

When they finally do, it feels great. Even if its only a few paragraphs.

So congrats. Seriously.

Broke the block,sideslipped the stall. Added 450 words. Not yet the sex scene, more set up, but in keeping with the story, exploring the character's mental process. The nature of the sex scene is defined, coming soon.
Applause is welcomed.

Standing oration from me....or was it ovation?

Had a lovely dinner with my daughter last night. Feeling a bit better. But still can't find my muse...and the only reward is a fresh story for you to read.

Unless you'd like a character named after you? That i can do...

I wouldn't turn down a poem should writing another strikes your fancy. I don't think your current WIP needs a Sammy

There is always the possibility of another story, at least until I reach 200.

Throw ovulation in there and you have the start for an entry to the pregnancy event next year.

My muse is silent. My writing tends to be a way to cope with trauma or emptiness. Well, my traumas are largely healed now. Thanks to a relationship with an inappropriately young lady (28 vs. my 68), I couldn't feel empty if I wanted to. How the hell am I going to finish my works in progress? Do I care? Maybe not.

I know what you mean. I say shelve the older work and start off with a love poem to your new paramour. Something full of appreciation and gratitude for this new lovely blossom in your life. Then maybe a sexy poem. See where it goes after that.

I find that holding on too tightly only suffocates my creativity. I've never defeated or overcome writers block, I've only outlasted it.

Well, the healing and relationship are good news. I have neither, just the depression (and its buddy anxiety, which makes me want to finish).
But happy for you. If you don't care, that's all that matters.

I like the way you think. I'm not much of a poet, but I may be able to craft something.

Dancing is a good way to generate energy and positive mood hormones.
