writer's block?
Oct. 7th, 2002 04:43 pmIs it bad for an artist to lose the motivation for her art?
I can't write as well as I did before I left college. I don't know if it's the environment or my own stress, but I'm having so much trouble seeing the story now. I used to be able to watch it in my head like a movie. I could follow Dana into the astral plane like I was flying, and I could tell you exactly what color Tom's eyes were and how he would make those snappy retorts to Kara before ripping off her clothes...but now I can't see it anymore. I need an editor again. I need a muse again. My friends, and I love them so well, keep telling me to "just write, let it come, just write" but I can't DO that if no one will give me feedback on what I already have. That's how it was before. I need the muse again. I need someone to step forward and be my muse and co-editor again. Because Tish won't answer me anymore and Jinxy is too busy.
