I'm blocking, Vito
Continuing about indecisiveness in writing, one of my CRRs was kind enough to say he "know[s] what [I] mean! It's a bit like insomnia, the more you think about it, the less likely you are to go to sleep." That's SO true. It's the thinking about it that paralyzes me. I used to say I simply couldn't write, even though I wanted to. Clearly three years of blogging demonstrates otherwise, yet when I set myself to write something "real," I still can't. It's some weird variation on the theme of writer's block, I guess. I wish I knew how to combat this.

The "what to write" doesn't bother me as much as "Will anyone want to read this boring drivel?" when I sit staring at the keyboard. :)

I think that's the part that doesn't bother me about blogging vs. "real" writing. That's probably why I can write here but not on GREAT BIG WHITE BLANK SCREENS (caps meant to suggest how scary they are!).
