Writing and Ruts

Writing Ruts and Writing Through 'Em!
Okay, first of all, happy American independence day, non existers! I don't know what's up with me today, I have the mental fatigues, the foggy brains, the mind clouds and don't want to write. Which is exactly why I'm writing this. I am in a rut and know it, it's hard, even starting this was difficult but as always, you have to write. Here I am.

I've realized that when you're in a rut and don't want to write, well that is precisely the time YOU MUST WRITE. Otherwise, if you neglect to write and keep up the momentum, it stops. Once it stops, it's harder to get it back going again. Ugh. So here I am, I don't know if I will hit my daily word count of 2000 words today, but even if I don't for a day, I will still have written. Some progress is better than no progress. Easier to keep things rolling than to let them waver off and die. NO! I can't do that. I hate days where I don't write! In a perfect world, that's all I would be able to do, just write. No day jobs, even having to sleep, eat, go to the bathroom and do adult things like socialize and stuffs. So again, that's why I'm here writing. I know no one really reads these, I don't have much to say, nothing interesting at all. So what. This is for me, not for you!

I am warming up once again, whilst other people talks about whatever, I'm getting ready to write! That's how you get through ruts, by writing. If you can't work on your novel or whatever work you have in progress, then write something! That's what this is, this is my something. My blargh, nonsense piled atop nonsense that helps my fingers do the dance. If I can type up this dribble, than I can hit up my novel with gusto and write what I need to write! I've experienced it, so I know it's true that when you take too many days off, you don't want to go back and write! You're afraid, I hate that, I never want to be afraid of writing, nah ah!

I know I'm not Jim Butcher, Stephen King or any other big shot, I know that this means nothing to most people. I wish I had something to say, something profound, I don't. I can't do that here, on some blog, no. That's not me. I'm an author, I write and say what I can and want in my novels. That's my love, where I leave a piece of myself, a bit of my soul and share it with others. Maybe that's why the bad reviews and people's criticisms hurt so much to artists of any medium. We're pouring our souls out for the world to see, and being that most people don't care (correct me if I'm wrong, and be honest) they trod all over 'em.

So yeah, I think for today I have said my nonsensical disjointed off on a tangent piece. I have work to do, stuff I actually like than being online and blogging and pretending that this gets read. Pretending that this is building my audience, fan base and readers ugh!
