To Luis - About Writer's Block A

((Originally posted by Greyhaunt on 11/28/07))

So Hi Luis. My name's Tai. My half-sister Lachlan says that my Japanese mother named me that because it means "trouble", but what can you expect from an older sister.

Anyway, I wanted to talk to you about writer's block. You see, I think I can help you there.
Image

The problem, you see, isn't that you can't write, but rather that you don't have the proper surroundings to bring the story out of you.
Image

See, artists of any kind, be it painted or written need to have inspiration.
Image

And the best type of inspirations come from challenges - from going outside of the box that represents your comfort zone.
Image

Sitting around in your home or room, talking to the same people in the same places at the same times, none of those things is going to give you that spark that you need to waken the muse that is sleeping inside you.
Image

You need to take a deep breath and let go of the self-imposed chains that are stifling you and your creativity.
Image

Be daring, Luis. Find the challenge that you never thought you would be up to facing and do just that.
Image

Let your creativity get stimulated by something new and exciting, Luis. You never know, you might even end up enjoying it and turning your life onto a new road.
Image

Think about it Luis. Just don't think too long.
