The past few prompts from my creative writing series have been duds.
I’m not feeling inspired at all.
It’s not like each and every one of these posts has been fabulously inspired. But the past couple days, I’ve struggled to even muster up the energy.
Fickle Inspiration
Inspiration doesn’t just pop up out of nowhere.
Sometimes, something lights a spark. Often, throughout this process of writing (almost) daily, I’ve felt true inspiration.
Other times, I feel like it’s a struggle to hammer something out.
The past couple of days I’ve felt uninspired, and I’ve been tempted to not write. To wait until the spark comes again.
The Trouble Is…
If I stop doing the work and just wait to feel inspired, it might never happen.
Yeah, it’s true, sometimes I feel like what I’m writing here is crap.
(A lot of times, actually.)
But at least I’m writing. Quantity, not quality, right?
While I Wait
Any readers I still have may just have to suffer a bit! Huzzah! I hope you’re up for it!
I’ve got a sweater that came off the needles. Maybe tomorrow I can get some photos of it and write something up.
Hopefully I’ll feel inspired.
In the meantime, I’ve been enjoying this podcast.
And this book.
