Thoughts on Writing: When Nothing Comes to Mind


What do you write when nothing comes to mind?

The same as what you write when everything comes to mind:

Gobbly-gook. Hunks of chunky words. Useless phrases clogging the page.

 

If I stop writing, will the world care?

No, just myself. I will feel it deep inside my heart.

 

If I continue writing, will the world care?

No, just myself. I will enjoy the creative mood.

 

If I’m basic, clichéd, and boring, will the world care?

No, just myself. I will work to improve my writing.

 

If I set myself free to explore, will the world care?

No, just myself. I will just continue to pour my soul onto the page.

 

Does it matter in the world cares?

No, just myself. I write for myself.
