Be it a trickle or a gusher, may it sustain you.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805501348812702651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-1129389262775864042005-10-15T11:14:00.000-04:002005-10-15T11:14:00.000-04:00Thank you, that post really helped me.So far I've ...Thank you, that post really helped me.<BR/><BR/>So far I've never experienced a total block since I started writing in 2001. Slow times, yes, times when I went in the wrong direction, yes (SF isn't my genre, lol) but I've always written some, or at least done research, outlined etc. Not so those last five weeks. I read a lot, but didn't work on my NiPs except the required edits for my anthology story.<BR/><BR/>I faced a storm but failed to see storms are part of our life. I scolded myself for not writing which made things worse. But I had to ride out that storm and watch the dark clouds chasing over me instead of writing. I now understand it was a normal reaction.<BR/><BR/>The storm has passed and left behind an empty void only memories can fill. <BR/><BR/>The sun is shining outside, sparkling in the cobwebs studded with jewels of dew, brightening the red and yellow leaves of the trees. A light I'll try to catch.<BR/><BR/>An idea for a scene: Talorcan, warrior and hunter of the Selgovian tribe, lets escape a deer, moved by the beauty of a perfect autumn day.<BR/><BR/>It will probably not make it into the final version, but I feel it will get me back into writing.<BR/><BR/>Thank you.Gabriele Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17205770868139083575noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-1129335405477400282005-10-14T20:16:00.000-04:002005-10-14T20:16:00.000-04:00Now THAT'S writing.cherylpNow THAT'S writing.<BR/><BR/>cherylpAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-1129331823953213882005-10-14T19:17:00.000-04:002005-10-14T19:17:00.000-04:00Words just can't express...Words just can't express...Heather Lynnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04776293080372126388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-1129322042407741652005-10-14T16:34:00.000-04:002005-10-14T16:34:00.000-04:00Wow, this is so lyrical, beautiful.
