Writers Block

*sigh* I am really getting tired of this writers block. It’s been what? Like 3 years now? I still have all the ideas, but when I go to put them ‘on paper’ *poof* they just do NOT come out. This is getting very frustrating, and I honestly feel like it is going to make me insane. I also feel like strangling the shrink that told me "Not to worry, it will come back, it will all come back in it’s own time, I guarante it!"

Is it not coming back because the last ex really was my muse? Is there something functionally wrong with my brain that there is such a disconnect between it and my hands? Is my imagination simply shot?

Has anyone else ever had this problem for so long? Let me know, I am really getting frustrated. I don’t really feel like I know who I am without my writing.

ryn: Good point… good point. lol On the writers block note — I enjoy writing as well, but I hit that wall every once in a while. I start out with gibberish and things that entertain me first. Random phrases, waterfalls, glitter, butterflies, snowglobes, etc…. Then I progress into stuff other people might understand.

I usually just start writing and don’t think about it… sometimes I even turn off the monitor so I can’t self-edit… a lot of it is crap… but some of it is pretty interesting to work with.
