Thanks! I think I need this. If I don't like the flavor, can I ingest it by putting it in my enema bag?
Hemingway said he threw 99 pages in the waste basket for every one page of quality writing. Writer's discernment is a better phrase than writer's block: knowing when not to add more crap to what's gone before. ;)
I throw the one page away and submit the others to short story contests. I won a cow in India and a 100 g bag of lemon grass in Thailand for my efforts. I can't seem to win in any country where they speak English.

I don't get writer's block either though I do write about getting stuck wanting to write about something ... if that makes sense.
