No such thing as Writer's Block

There is no such thing as Writer's Block. There is fatigue of course, but rest and, for me at least, birding are the remedies for that. (Illness is another matter.) Writer's Block is a poor excuse for failing to produce anything.

Research and note-making are one thing (two actually), but there is no better way to develop ideas than writing itself. Language is power and the key to unlocking the imagination, be it words, the vocabulary of paint or the syntax of film or whatever medium you choose to work in.

Time is the enemy, not Writer's Block. You can undam your imagination through practising your craft. Time, alas, cannot be defeated.

The New Year brings with it a lot of opportunities and a list of projects to work through. Having had a rest, on 2 January 2012 I expect to hit the keyboard hard.
