I think a part of my writer’s block may be due to draining the creative well.
I’ve been in . . . well, I’ve been in a rut for a while now. After all, ruts are . . . comfortable. Truth be told, I’m very much a creature of habit and have a tendency to try to duck out of anything that disrupts that.
But . . . too much of the same for too long can let the creative well run dry. So I need to push myself out of the comfort zone a bit. Do some things I enjoy, but haven’t done for too long. Try some new things. Just . . . recharge.
Of course, I’ll have to balance that against the very long list of chores I’ve got to do around here. But hopefully it’ll be worth it. Maybe it’ll even stir up some brand new–and exciting–story ideas.
Now, that’s not necessarily a solution to my writer’s block, but it certainly won’t hurt.
