I get the same feeling. And then find myself on the other end of a video game bender, 72 hours later, exhausted; wondering if this means I’m never going to make it. Then I crash and sleep. Wake up. Go back to my day job as a zombie. Take a deep breath, and write a zombie short story or an essay or something and then get back to the writer’s grind.
I have to write queries and it’s the one part of writing I dislike. Feels like I’m fishing when I should have brought a hot air balloon. But not today – dealing with bronchitis – yuck. At least you can’t catch it over the blog.
I used to take a writing hiatus every December, but due to an important deadline this year I’ve been forcing myself to work. You just gotta get to it, or figure out time for later. 🙂
Interesting! Anand Bose from Kerala
You can do both! Wishing you best of luck with the screenplay.
Dagmar
Ideas all over the place. A collaboration, a new short story birthing, a collection. Like stepping away for the holiday has let the well refill.
A frustrating period for a writer!

Same, but riding bikes keep my finger off the keys when the weather is nice.
