when there's no inspiration...

[desertlizard]

so there's something i wanted to share with you all and get out of my chest, i mean i dont neccesary do or make anything to obtain inspiration and write down what im doing at the moment or what is going on in my life, i mean i ve been through a looooong procedure without writing down anything...more specific since last year... since june from last year from until a month ago i did not wrote anything...and the reason? well i guess there was no inspiration AT ALL, nothing thrutful to myself to grab a sheet of paper and write any thoughs...i guess i can relate with the late Salinger he wrote about just a few books and then,... dissapeared from the written word, he as many of you know was very very reserved with his private life and so little of it its known, what im trying to say its that when you dont ve anything else to write, talk, about its better not to force so...i mean as a writer you just cannot force words...
i dunno if you guys understand or get the point of what im saying but hey i was bored :bleh:

I have peaks and troughs with my writing and have had writers block that went on for years. Strangely, I too didn't write from June last year until a few moths ago either. There are exercises you can do without forcing. I read somewhere that you should try a kind of 'Tip of the Tongue' exercise and just see what comes out. If it's rubbish, don't post it but at least it will keep your hand 'in'. Songwriters have the same problem. Quality is better than quantity anyway. :)
