My late friend Dan had a cure for writer's block. He told me to go to the local yuppie sports bar, a sbrightly neon lit as you can find, with as many screens as possible. look around you. Really look. And then say, "yeah, my life sucks, and I cannot find a single thing of inspiration right now... but. At least I'm not THAT guy over there. Or THAT one. etc."

Repeat as necessary, he told me. I think this technique may work in several different settings besides yuppie sports bars.

sounds like a plan

Dan was no fool. God, how I miss him, still.

Interesting exercise. I'll have to try that someday.

[Rene Velez]

LOL, we have all been there...

[Baby Ricochet]

And then, to be quite certain it is genuine writer's block, post an adorable kitty cat picture to go along with the "crap"...except...the only thing that would have truly been "crap" here would have been a blank page...with an adorable kitty cat picture. This isn't "crap" my love...this is the process. Well done.

I hate writer's block so much especially when it's for something you have to get done. Well I guess there wasn't a block big enough to create your inspiration from a lack of inspiration. Great write :)

[Baby Ricochet]

thank you ankara

[Lisa]

Hate that.

[Baby Ricochet]

Me too

[h d e rushin]

helpful hint baby ricochet, own and take ownership of a hard copy Merriams-Webster's collegiate dictionary. every thought, every emotion, every stop and start and every good and bad poem ever
written is in there......lol. it is the ultimate cure.......dana

[dw817]

Wholeheartedly agree ! Although I find my inspiration and words of wisdom for my writing from a thesaurus myself. :)

[Baby Ricochet]

OOh. I gotta get one of those. Thank you rushin

[dw817]

Steve doesn't write like me. He's gotta ways to go. :D

[Tai Ryens]

I normally write journals to ensure I don't give up writing entirely

[Mark]
