It's different than writer's block, you see? If I had writer's block, I could not have written about where the nickname (MrArash) had come from and I could not gather the energy to write this blog even! What I have is a blogger's block Don't even think about it, kids - I'm in the process of trademarking that phrase as we speak!
A blogger's block is when you have a tough time transferring you writing ideology to a blog. For the past few months, I have been writing three different things: 1) A screenplay about men behaving badly, 2) my life's manifesto and 3) my personal journal.
I keep sitting down to write a blog entry and it ends up looking a lot more like my personal journal entry than a blog entry. Then I go to write in my personal journal and nothing comes out! This, I imagine, is a big chunk of the creative lifestyle: Learning how to switch gears!
I'm working on it, though. Good times.
