Every Friday, I write a report on what happened in the market that week, which we distribute to customers/clients. Usually, I can come up with a good 500+ words even when it’s slow, but I’m thinking of submitting the above today.
It’s been so so so dead this week that I can barely think of a paragraph’s worth of material. I’ve been bored out of my mind for long periods, despite it only being a 4-day working week. God I need this upcoming holiday more than ever.
EDIT: I managed to string it out to 200 words. A good effort!
I’m constantly amused by how my desire or ability to write comes and goes. Yesterday, I was in full flow, with words coming out of me non-stop.
I was up till gone 1 in the morning, emailing amd posting because I had so much to just put out there. It was on a myriad of subjects, but they just flowed out of me.
Today, however, I’ve had nothing. I’ve not had anything happen worth talking about, nor has my mind wandered off in random directions.
Usually I can find something on the Dashboard to set me off, but even that has failed me so far today. There’s been good material to read and look at, but nothing that has really inspired me.
And yet I can write about not being able to write. Is the last resort for people with writer’s block? Going meta?
