Do We Have to Be Prolific All the Time?

On creative blocks, future plans, and calling oneself a 'writer' while not writing.

As might be expected for an essay on the topic of writer’s block, I’ve written the start of this post several times and gone on to delete the document several times. Each time, something has stopped me from completing it, but now, because I think I owe my supporters an explanation and an apology, I’ve decided to come clean.

The explanation is simply. In fact, you’ve probably already been able to guess it. John and I have been busy lately. We’ve had a lot of personal stuff going on. Lots of life changes.

Because of this (and while I can’t speak for John I can certainly speak for myself), it’s been harder than usual to sit down and write.
