If a writer is someone who feels they have something to say, and writing is their way of saying it, what happens when you feel as though you no longer have anything to say? Can one stop being a writer, in this sense? Can one finish saying what they wanted to say, and thus be done with it?
I guess the real question is: how long do you want to wait until you have something else to say?
How long do you have to wait until then?

A writer is someone who writes. Keep going even when it seems hopeless. The good stuff that comes easy is never as good as it seems, but the stuff you think sucks never sucks that bad either. I’m enjoying your blog, but fix a schedule and stick to it. Get ahead and have posts ready. I’ll read them.

I feel this way all the time. I feel empty. I haven’t written anything in almost 2 years. I’ve written little snippets but nothing great really. I think everyone feels this way to some degree. Thank you for letting me know I’m not the only one.
