Via 30 Knits in 30 Days
Crowdsourcing my way out of a writing block...
More like a “doing anything” block.
What in the hell do you people who are smart and make things do when every ounce of your attention goes to a complete void?
I’m not even distracted at the moment. I just can’t fucking DO anything. Not even for 5 minutes.
I leave.
When I can’t write and all the time during which I’m pretending to write is being spent reading Tumblr and obsessively refreshing my RSS feed or my analytics [shut up, you know you do it too], I have to get away. Even if it’s for an hour or ten minutes or whatever. I take the dog out or go sit in the park with knitting or shoot photos or find someone to meet for lunch. I have a pretty strict policy about Getting Shit Done, but if it’s not happening, it’s not happening, and I know it won’t until I get my head in the right place.
I’m sorry. This is a sucky place to be. Hope it all gets better.

The drink made past happy things contemporary with the present, as if they were still going on, contemporary even with the future as if they were about to happen again.
