walks not what...
Writer's block is a fantasy to me also. It must be an obsession for perfection by some writers. I question what I put on the page, but I can always find something to try. Writing is like splashing paint on a canvas. You don't know if it is right until you put something down.
This reminds me of something I heard in an art class once... Art exists within limits. On canvas, on a blank wall or a hunk of clay, paint or charcoal, animal vegetable or mineral. Writer's block is a breakdown in clarifying the limits of character, plot, tone, etc. Good to hear from you Rand, hope you WiP(s) are going well. :)
