Writer Woes

Have you ever had one of those days where you are in the middle of the super market or driving in traffic, when all of the sudden the urge to write takes over your entire being? You can feel the memory of the keyboard resting against your fingertips, while the words are flowing through your mind like an untapped faucet. But you are nowhere near a computer, typewriter or even a simple 1 inch long, half chewed, barely enough lead showing past the wood tip of a pencil, to write on whatever small scrap of paper you might have lying around? The need to write so intense that you chant the words over and over in your head, just so you won’t forget them by the time you get home. You scramble with your keys, burst through the door and grab whatever instrument you can find to relieve the intense pressure of the dam you built in your head to hold all the thoughts running freely around your mind.
Or worse…
You feel the anxiety from the need to express your thoughts, but the blank pages of absent words are taunting you. Your mind fails to deliver you from the depths of deficient creativity. Frustration engulfs you, as you try to force just one creative sentence to appear right before your eyes. You sit with your fingertips aching to hammer away at the keys while you stare at the ugly white page of emptiness and you begin to hate the non color of white. If only there was a way unlock your hidden expressions. How do you unblock the writer?

Brilliant! You are an obssesed writer already...

There is a novel you should read: "Martin Eden" by Jack London... not only will you like it, you'll identify with it!
