The best thing for me is to put it down, take a breath, and focus on something else. I find it helpful to revisit the literature that inspired me to write in the first place, or take a walk and be present in the current moment. Other times it merely takes a good night's sleep to clear my mind and restore my creativity.(less)

S.F.’s Quotes

“Even the wind had ceased, and there seemed to be nothing in the world but the darkness and himself. In that gigantic blackness, in that unseen quietude and vacancy, the mind could cease to be personal to itself. It could be overwhelmed and merged in space, so that consciousness would be transferred or dissipated, and one might sleep standing; for the mind fears loneliness more than all else, and will escape to the moon rather than be driven inwards on its own being.”
― James Stephens, Irish Fairy Tales
