Why the struggle?
Why the struggle with writing?
How come it takes so long to get it done?
Because it’s not a straightforward process.
Put it this way, some days the words seem to fall on to the page and it just works great. My imagination is working on all cylinders and everything seems to work just right. The words come and life is good.
Then there are the other days. The days where the words don’t come easily and it’s the hardest thing in the world to do. It’s like bashing each individual word into the sentence with the big rubber mallet of my mind. Or something.
Anyway, some days are easier than others, is what I’m saying.
That said, I’ve had a good day.
Good day? Damn, I’ve had a good week!
Not generally good, but in terms of writing It’s been a success. And for next week? Who knows. As long as I have more words by the end of next week than I have right now then things are going well…
