Starting from next week, I'll be doing a 'Friday Flicks' post; just to review the TV shows I'm watching and comment on the episodes and hopefully you guys will like it!
But for today..
Do you ever get that feeling like 'I don't feel like writing...' 'I'm not inspired anymore..' 'I've lost my muse'?
Not to worry.. it happens to all of us.
This kind of correlates with being in writer's block, except it's kind of the opposite-- you have the idea written down somewhere, or it's in your head-- you can envision everything.. it's just to gather the strength to sit at the desk or to grab the laptop or the notebook and write it.
Why do we feel like this? Have you been writing so long and you feel it's not going anywhere? Do you find it pointless to write anymore because you feel you could be doing something more meaningful?
As a writer, thoughts like this do pop in our minds; (I get them) but as long as you can remember why you write. Do you write for release? Do you write to express your innermost thoughts and feelings? Do you write because that is the best way you can communicate? (My reason!)
Whatever the reason maybe, go back to it-- there is no point to be writing so long and then you just stop!
When I get those thoughts, I go back to stories I wrote in the past.. and my random diary entries and that love for writing comes back-- sometimes I do get discouraged, but people around me encourage me and it's something that I've always loved doing--- just when you get angry with someone you love.. the love always remains.
Keep writing. Your words are an inspiration/encouragement/upliftment to someone.
