Writer's Block

by Padmaja Iyengar-Paddy

Writer’s Block -
Is like a solid sock
Right on one's eye,
That blurs vision like a sty,
And puts creativity in the dock.

I am currently in that space
Of struggling to find ways
To deal with this Writer’s Block,
To quickly rejoin the writers’ flock
And start seeing happier days....

Thanks Mr. Nair. And yes, been there and done that.. :-))) Wrier's Block is so independent that it comes and goes according to will. No control over it :-)

Good one, Padmaja-ji. I am an inhabitant there most of the time. Haven't met you though. May Ma Saraswati grant you unobstructed creativity. Meanwhile, please see if this link is any help in diagnosing your problem: http://io9.com/5844988/the-10-types-of-writers-block-and-how-to-overcome-them

Thanks Kingshuk but believe me, I often go through periods of intense blankness and creativity numbness :-))

Nice one..... but must say, you do not struggle....rather the block knows, when.....
One moves around like breeze
With words flow with ease.....
It's you, Padmaja!
