Gah!

I just can't write. I'm getting really vexed and making myself anxious. I really hope this isn't the start of another three year dry spell [sigh] Send me inspiration!

A little later: since I'm not writing, I decided to mess with the new themes available. What do you think? Maybe I'll keep it for a few days and see if I like it as well as my old standard. One of these days, I need to comission a unique theme. I can create themes for my blog, but LJ layouts baffle me.

Hey, you changed your LJ!! Hmmm. I think I like it.

So, inspiration: curtains moving but no breeze; the color, pale rose; and Methos, his hand curled in sleep.

Now, write! I command it! *silly grin*

If only it were that easy [bleah]

Oh, but I know you can do something with those prompts! Just a drabble to get you back in the habit! Some little something just for me? *smiles winsomely*

I wish I could. I am just brain numb, can't seem to get anything to happen. and for some reason, it's upsetting me. I know it shouldn't, it's not life or death, it's just fic. But I'm still upset.

That's very nice - lovely colour!

I don' think I like the layout as well, but I do like the colour :)

good luck getting over the writer's block...........

I was in grad school for six years before coming back to writing so maybe that helped. I dunno.

I find that reading/watching my fav shows helps me recharge my 'batteries' and get back to writing.

good luck,
chris

Hopefully it's just a post vacation funk!

Sorry to hear about the dry spell. There is an amusing article about writers block floating about on the net, by Harlan Ellison. Though it could be by Isaac Asimov. Or maybe David Gerrold.

No, I'm pretty sure it's Harlan. A SF guy for sure. I think.

A writing instructor once told me that the 'block' is your subconscious telling you to write about something else. Dunno.

I've got a block tonight myself, on some technical writing stuff, but I suspect that it has a lot to do with pasta, beer, and Game 4 of the world series :-)

Maybe your subconscious in pining for 'House'?
