Ian Tadashi Moore
In those days when I don't feel like it, or just don't feel like I have anything new or interesting to say, I just have to sit down and write _something_ even if it makes no sense.
I'm going to start using a notebook and just long hand writing in those moments when I don't feel "inspired". That way, at least I'm doing _something_. I find it's when you let yourself languish one day, then all of a sudden it's a week later and you admonish yourself for falling off the boat — that's a real confidence killer. But if you allow yourself even 15 minutes (use a timer even!) you'll find that not only is it easy to write for that time, you might find you go even further than you thought, and then you can look back on those days saying "at least I did something"
