The brain barf

I was so worried earlier today. 

I was planning on blogging, today, and in the end I suppose I did. However, the original post was never meant to be anything like this. In fact, I had this whole elaborate plan of action ready for a potential post. When I sat down, however, nothing substantial came, and I lost all interest and zeal in whatever it was I was supposing to write about. Being in that creative mood and totally unable to release the artistic tension, I decided to write about that.

Writers and artists oftentimes come across a barren spell of time called a "block." It's this utterly useless feeling wherein one feels a thirst for a creative outlet, yet there is no wellspring of inspiration to be found required to continue the process. 

So as I was sitting around, seething in my frustration and lack of inspiration, I couldn't help but take note of the movie I was supposed to have been watching...

  1. Aaaaah. I hate writer's block with a hot seething passion. I get it all the time. ESPECIALLY when I'm all excited and want to write something, and I'll pull open a word document and everything.............than I'll just sit there. Leaving it open and blank. XD
