Blogged Out

I’m writing again. If you’ve read the blog before, you may have seen entries where I talk about writing as my ultimate elixir of health. Wednesday, I wrote more than 3,000 words, the opening of a new book. A few more, and I can sit back, take a gander, and get back to CLUES. I think this was the log jam. Because I NEED to finish CLUES, I’d been blocking this, telling it “go away; I have work to do.” But it wouldn’t – and the result was that I’d stopped writing at all. The result was an inability to deal with a lot of other things.

So I took the day to write, and things mentally and emotionally are moving much better. A bit of cheer as returned, and I’m facing some tough tasks that I’d been putting off with a much better frame of mind.

We are so weird, writers. The consuming passion for storytelling.

So…if you are a writer…or you have a child who writes. Let go. Write.

Let’s hope I stop ignoring my own advice.
