Oh hon, that's terrible. I'm so sorry about your face/neck. *huggles* And I'm sorry about your writing. I know how frustrating that is. There was a long period of time where writing was a struggle, and then after a while I just couldn't do it at all anymore, and it's not until recently that I've had even an inkling of inspiration. But it will come back to you hon. You just have to give it time. Relax. Let your mind take a break. Writing is an art afterall, and as someone wise once said, you can't rush art. ♥
In regards to writing, well, my best suggestion might be to take some time off, and then maybe write things that you don't let people see. To be honest, I have probably ten attempts at a story for every one I complete. There's nothing wrong with that. Sometimes the attempts are what make the ending so shining, and really, never push out the writing. I never wrote for the last pretty_stickers challenge because I couldn't find anything to write about, and I wrote several fics in that time, just none to the theme.
What I am saying is, write for yourself and when it comes, it comes. I normally go in spurts (take a look at my calendar since shadowlies inception), and when I'm not writing, I just let it go. Some people can write as easily as they can breathe, most can't. So, wait, maybe a long time, and it'll come back. Because I really thought "A Lover's Scene" was lovely.
I kept thinking if I just pushed myself to write then maybe, I would write something I liked. I never had to push it before it just kinda happened. But this is really not the case at all lol. I think you are right, I've written a couple of things that I haven't finished but maybe if I just write for me for a while it'll come back.
Thank you so much for this lovely comment. *squishes you* It means a lot and actually makes a lot of sense!
