Seriously. Words I really needed to hear! The worst for me is when I'm forcing myself to write, and I'm doing the words, but nothing worthwhile is coming out. But sometimes I think there's just some dust and gunk clogging the creativity pipes, and you've got to wash that out with some throwaway words before the good stuff can run clear again! Kimberley, you are just the sweetest. Seriously. Words I really needed to hear!

Sometimes I'll go days and days or even weeks and weeks without actually writing new words, and then I'll start psyching myself out and freaking out and inertia sets in - and I finally have to force myself to just write a few lines, just a paragraph, or a page - but amazingly the mind and the well will open and it starts to come again. A lot of it is just plain faith! Faith that it will come. Yes, yes, yes, Meg, to all of the above!

And things like going to the post office and the bank are soooo much quicker when you aren't doing it with the ten thousand other people after work. And yes to lunch! Just say when. :) It totally is!
