Creativity
It's been a while since I've blogged - but, I've got a column due for the magazine I write for - and I'm supposed to get a newsletter written this weekend for work - and I'm brain dead.
Where did my creativity go? Why is it that sometimes I can find inspiration in a leaf falling and other times, I can't string three words together?
When I'm under pressure it gets worse - I know my topic - I know the points I want to make but, the damn words escape me. :notworking:
I feel like I'm slicing tomatoes with a chainsaw, the thoughts have to be edited and edited again - and then they make no sense what so ever, and it wasn't what I wanted to express in the first place! :doh:
At 8 o'clock on Monday morning I have to turn in a 500 word column and a four page newsletter on golf - and here I sit, at 4:53 on Saturday watching the seconds tick by without a word on the paper.
The evil "*beep*" they call "Stroke" allows me glimpses of my former creative self when "she" wants to - and "she" challenges me -by denying me access to complete thoughts on occassions like these.
Maybe I'll get lucky and in the middle of the night I'll find some inspiration - Perhaps a muse will take pity on me and grant me this favor - :Angel:
Maybe in the total depths of of a writer's winter, this "*beep*" they call "Stroke" will release her hold on my damaged brain and allow me to think freely again. For just a moment. And then I'll find a way back to my creativity.
