It’s been quiet around this place for the last week. I keep meaning to blog about Kai’s assertion that the devil is controlling her thoughts (which is NOT as scary or disturbing as it sounds) or how Traveler is on a sleeping strike and refuses to sleep more than 45 minutes at a time unless he is cradled in someone’s (read: my) arms but every time I sit down to write I just…don’t.
I have drafts. Lots and lots and lots of dry, boring, mediocre drafts. But I’m stuck. I’ve got a pretty bad case of writer’s block and I’ve been struggling with it since Thanksgiving. For me, the more I blog the more I have to blog about. However, taking a break for the holidays? It totally messed with my blogging mojo.
So, I’m trying to get back in the swing of things both here and on Twitter. You might have to bear with me as I struggle through a few posts until I get my writing feet back under me.
In the meantime, care to tell me your favorite remedy for writer’s block? I could use all the help I can get!

Me too, for real…half lack of mojo/momentum, half lack of time and freedom from Mr. Clingypants. Maybe we can come up with some way to motivate each other? Assign each other topics or something?

Unrelated, I’ve been reading “It Sucked and Then I Cried” (by dooce), and I think you’d love it.

I think the best relief is to let go of the guilt! Hello! We love you even if you appear to have fallen off the face of the planet into chicken poop. So stop beating yourself up sister! =)
