I felt like writing a blog. There seemed to be a number of things whirling round in my head, some of them difficult, most of them straightforward. But I remembered to advice I have been given by two friends, one of whom is the subject of one or two of the whirling things. So, nothing self-indulgent, nothing self-deprecating, nothing this, nothing that. Everything becomes so tricky. It is a wonder that I manage even basic motor functions.
So I am left with a blank sheet of paper, on which to write nothing. Perhaps I will write a story; there is plenty of material there in my imagination, which in no way forms a part of any of my experiences or those of anyone else, so far as I am aware. Perhaps that is where my destiny lies at present.

Hmm! I know this feeling you express, the one feeling like you need to write it all out, to get it out of your head in the hope that it will ease your mind... Sometimes it does and sometimes it doesn't, pot luck I guess!
So0metimes people want a magic answer to be written out for them, and others just need to write, or WANT to write; either way, personally, I usually find that when I am in this state, the very fact means that I will not go on to be creative and write anything worhtwhile, but I hoep that it's different for you and that you make use of this 'feeling' of 'something' "She said I need somebody...smarter than me, I need to exercise my vocabulary! I'll shut up and learn from... I'll shut up now." | |

I know that feeling well! Whenever I'm overcome by too many thoughts I disappear into my writing - without it, I think I'd go mad. Immersing myself in a fictional situation not only distracts me from my problems, at times i've found it's given me answers to them. It's a strange ol' life. |
