It hasn't gone smoothly in literally* a few years now...I've had a few fits and starts of a few days to a few weeks. But the last several times I've tried to write, I just couldn't think of anything. Not even a dumb conversation for my characters to have, scenery to overdescribe, or a meandering memory sequence, so that I could edit it out. Nothing. Not only do I not know what happens next, I can't even think of what could happen next. I've thought about "maybe it's the project" but I don't think it is (I had major Real Life stuff going on when my writing stopped working), although I've tried to think of something else to write about and I really* can't come up with anything.
I'm out of ideas of how to fight it. I can't stick any name on it but "writer's block"--but at what point does it stop being that because I turn into a usedtobeawriter? *sigh*
Anyone been there and done that? Where do I buy the t-shirt so I can fly home?
*I can still try to kill adverbs
