You may have noticed (or perhaps not, seeing as I don’t have quite as many blog readers as somebody who’s famous) that I have been trying to do a post a day asince starting this work. Yesterday was one of a couple of times when I have clearly failed in this endeavour. I sat at the computer for probably about 20 minutes just before retiring for the night desperate to think about something to write. You saw the result. Nothing came.
This is not acceptable. I should be able to find something, anything to write a few words about, look at how easily the words flow from on this, one of the most frightening experiences a writer could have. I think that is the first question; am I a writer. I want to be. I want be a good one. Am I? No. Can I be? I don’t know, but I am happy trying.
Anyhow, writers block; in my case last night, I did try to start a post a couple of times, but the words would just not come, and when they did, I caught myself thinking “I don’t want to read this, why on earth would you?” So I binned the very feeble attempts.
Now, when it comes to writing, I like to have a clear thought in my head as to the topic. Hence tonights article was relatively easy. But, I need a strategy, what to do when I get a case of the block. Well, I think I have one . When the output arrives, you might think the topic or order is a bit weird, but really that’s my problem, not yours.
I set no word limit, I set no particular sequence, I merely wish at the end of the event to have article for which I am happy to press the publish button, and I need to be happy doing that. As is the case with this article. Good evening.
Some random pictures for you.
