All written out? October 1, 2007

Filed under: writing — itsy @ 8:33 pm

Today I feel a little emptied out, as if I’ve over extended myself. It’s odd, I didn’t really write more than usual, but I feel carved out. There are few words left rattling around inside, and little desire to write. Sometimes, like tonight, it just feels a little fruitless. My candle is just one more light among thousands, and always with the struggle to be fresher, specific, clear.

    I’ve been there. Maybe allowing yourself to be done in for a while will give you the space to start fresh. Take a walk. Play a game with a kid. Or do something totally different from your normal routine. Then get back to the writing.

    Oh, and if this works, please let me know. :-)
