how do you words?

[such_heights]

So I hear there's things thing where you tap letters into a keyboard and then somehow stories happen? That's a thing people do?

I forget how, I think my writing broke. >:(

SAME.

How do words happen?

I hear you used to be able to do it with special sticks and very fine strips of wood. WHO KNEW?

My brain has had one or two good pushes of words in the past 8 months. *sighs*

[musesfool]

I know that feel, bro.

Thanks! It's from the early days of LJ - made by minervacat, iirc. She did a whole series of West Wing and HLotS quote icons, back in the day.

I understand that's an option some people avail themselves of. Personally, I'm more familiar with the one where you see how many times you can count that little cursor blinking before you give up and have a wee cry.

This has been me most of this year.

Oh, I am in that handbasket with you.

1. I find wine helps when this process is hung up.


2. Due to pending employer-baby and how focused my brain is, I totally read that at first glance as "my water broke".

??? :(

Nah, that can't be it. It must be something more complicated than that, possibly involving electrostochastic interferometry or obscure berries from the Amazon basin. Otherwise we would all be doing it.

If you figure out how to fix it, please let me know. I somehow broke mine too.

Mine broke for SIX MONTHS. Really more. It was excruciating. I read a lot of books instead. I hope you find your words soon.
