| Before Jebba came into my life. |
I have conversations in my head – ALWAYS. It may have begun
when I was small and had a make believe friend named Jebba. I don’t remember
her, but my older siblings assure me she existed, if only in my mind. Maybe it is like that for everyone. I think that’s why I write. If I put one of
those “in my head” conversations to print, then I can move on to the next
conversation – and the next. It’s my way
of sorting things out. It’s also my way
of preparing a lecture, life lesson, or a battle plan when approaching a dilemma
with a service provider or insurance claim representative. (I could expound all day on the subject of
insurance claim battles.) Maybe everyone has those conversations.
Some days the conversations are dull and unworthy of
sharing. Some days I want to have
something fabulous to say and there really isn’t much there. Other days I stumble upon great ideas when I
am not near a computer or pencil and paper.
The awesome thought leaves and seldom returns. I don’t like that.
I discovered a definition of writer’s block on Pinterest the
other day. Check it out HERE! I think the description is correct! If I can’t hear the thoughts in my head, they
never seem to make it to the page. Those are the days that I struggle to be
productive. Should I sit here and force
myself to write something? Anything? Or …
should I get up and do something more physically demanding until the conversation
begins on its own?
I’m really not crazy.
I’m just a writer struggling to find the magic formula that gets readers
to follow and engage in the conversation. After all, if the reader joins in, my
friends won’t all have to be make believe!
Save a writer’s sanity – read and reply!
Happy Reading!
