Writer’s block

It’s been a crazy summer with so many things going on that I just haven’t had time to think about writing.  My mind has been constantly chewing over one thing or another and I haven’t been able to focus on anything.

Now that things are settling down I find that I lack any inspiration at all to write.  Maybe it’s like a muscle that you need to exercise all the time otherwise it gets weak and lazy.  That’s what my mind feels like right now.  Apathetic and uninspired.

This is part of my self prescribed therapy to get back on top.  Writing about my non-writing.  I hope that just getting something down on the page will help me snap out of it.

It’s amazing to me that once you get an illness or an injury how long rehabilitation takes.  I mean you might be walking down the street one moment and the next you can’t walk, or can’t speak, or in this case can’t write and it all takes a long rehab process to get you going again.  Less than a month ago I was doing this freely and now my mind is an empty closet.

I might as well start watching reality shows and sitcoms.  But that’s a short and pointless path that leads nowhere.  I will get out of this but it’s going to take time.
