WOW!! Writer's block sucks so very much! It has been a hard week or two, trying to force myself to write. The words would just not come. I would sit here time after time and stare at the blinking cursor, and nothing would happen. It didnt help that I have been so sick. Still am, but my brain is not as foggy as it has been. I have been struggling a lot with doubts. Thinking I am just so stupid for thinking I could do something so awesome as succeed where so many people fail. Thinking I would better serve my family by going out and getting some menial job, even though I would suffer physically for it. But I made it back today. I am writing again, and I think I can make it over this black cloud of fear that is looming over me! So I am most pleased to report that I am up to 46,000 words and still going. I have never written so much before, so feeling a little proud today! [ link to i.imgur.com] You can. just remember Hemingway. when he got blocked, he would squeeze orange peels into the fire and gaze at the colors and say to himself, all you have to do is write one true sentence. the rest will come. and he did,too. look for that one true sentence and it will break the spell. one true sentence! I think i can do that. Thanks!!
