Writers Block?

Had four days off (well, three and a sick day) and not a single word written or revised. I must forgive myself just a little. Two of those days, I was miserable, hence the sick day, but I just wasn't very motivated to write. Especially with all the turmoil going on in the family. Can't convince my younger brother of the severity of getting tests done now to find out what the spot on the lung really is. Waiting is not an option, no matter the cost.

But I tell myself every day I'm going to write, write, write, and this is about as far as I get. I did write my 'mourning' pages the other day but haven't worked on the website or on the script. Really need to do that here soon if I want to get it in the mail in 26 days or if I want to keep on track of my goal of 1k words a day.

And I shouldn't be blogging...

...or twittering...

check out the twitterer I found: www.twitter.com/the_artists_way

or mine at www.twitter.com/jazzyjynx

off to do something that resembles writing...

      Shawn, you are on the right track when you say you must "forgive yourself just a little." You inspire many, myself included. And sometimes tweeting or blogging help get the creative juices flowing a bit. As a matter of fact, I have decided to count blog posts towards my daily word count. Blogging is important to me, too, so why not? Anyway, I just wanted to give you a word of encouragement. Forget about yesterday, and do your best to write 1000 words today. I will do the same!
