Have you guys ever experienced this?
I haven't written new stuff in my WIP for a while. It's not that I have Writer's Block. In fact, I know what to write...BUT I CAN'T! What the hell's wrong with me?! This is the first time I've ever encountered this problem--to already know what to write but can't write it down.
I've listed a few things:
1. Am I just plain lazy?
2. Am I too overwhelmed with all the research I'll need to make the story accurate?
3. Is it that I unconsciously don't want to finish because finishing may mean saying goodbye to the characters I've come to love?
4. Am I afraid of making a mistake?
5. Have I simply lost my drive?
6. Am I too busy reading novels to concentrate on writing my own?
What's my answer? I DON'T KNOW! But it's sure keeping me from writing! AARRGH!
Meanwhile, I'm gonna go do some edits, some reading or mulling.
