On Writing & Thinking About Writing
The thing about writing I find most fascinating is that even when I hit the wall and think I will never write again, I do.
Time after time I return to the page where my world becomes calm, safe and supportive as I write yet again.
What fascinates me so is that even when we think we are "empty" and there is nothing more to say, there is always something more to say, something inspiring will spark my thoughts and off I go.
While I have seldom been acquainted with a writer who did not suffer writer's block, I have known and still know many who are.
The best thing I know of to start the engines churning again is to pull away, do something different, even just taking a walk and suddenly I am wanting to get home as fast as I can to write what dawned on me during the walk.
Don't give up if you are a writer, never give up. Do give yourself room to just "be" and let the naturally flowing thoughts inspire you. This is what works for me and I hope you find it helpful.
