While I've read about Writer's Block, it isn't something I believe exists. Indeed it strikes me as just a little bit pretentious. I mean, can you honestly tell me that if I put a pen between your fingers, or a keyboard beneath them, that you cannot form a single letter? Either an "a" or an "I" will do, and just like that the block is broken, you are writing again and you should be asking yourself the question, "How did I ever stop?"
Perhaps the real answer should have been that I'll only know the answer when I encounter the problem.
My writing all comes from something I think of as my heart, as yet it has never stopped beating. Yes, I have times when my heart is so heavy I can't bear the thought of sharing the thoughts it raises. But I still write them down in secret places from which I have no intent to share.

Write from your heart. Set your mind free, let it find its own goal, and the words you write will describe a journey of the soul.

My current writing task is editing Malmaxa II - The Pilgrimage.
Strangely enough I am thoroughly enjoying doing this. In the past editing was one of my least favorite things to do. Perhaps this is short-lived, but right now I am deriving great satisfaction from cleaning up the mess left by my own words and thoughts.

The problem is not a difficulty finding inspiration to write, so much as it is finding something that allows me to stop writing.
Inspiration is tumultuous, its lack is calm. Sometimes the thing I desire most is a little calm.
Inspiration is literally everywhere, and as someone fascinated with words I derive great enjoyment from addressing whatever issue strikes my mind.
