Writer’s Block Be-Gone!
A month of writer’s block & busyness be-gone!
While trying to shake free from my malaise I read what other writers did when enveloped in writer’s block. A google search led me to this quote by Maya Angelou:
“What I try to do is write. I may write for two weeks ‘the cat sat on the mat, that is that, not a rat.’ And it might be just the most boring and awful stuff. But I try. When I’m writing, I write. And then it’s as if the muse is convinced that I’m serious and says, ‘Okay. Okay. I’ll come.’” ~~ Maya Angelou ~~
Note – quoted by Richard Nordquist on About.com
I love her humility and sense of humor expressed in this quote.
Time to get to work!

Keep writing, Scott. There’s something about words that bring liveliness to our souls. You are a very good writer. And thanks for sharing your words and thoughts with others.
