Surely, everyone’s experience is unique, but I’ve been there.
We are all human, and sometimes life gets in the way. You may have an emergency that prevents you from keeping up with your writing goals–perhaps, you’ve become a care-taker or a parent. Perhaps, you are having an existential crisis and/or a mental breakdown and feel as though writing is just not it for you at the moment. Surely, everyone’s experience is unique, but I’ve been there. Many times. Observing my thoughts and feelings without pressuring myself to write helps me immensely during those trying times–along with some methods that allow me to get back to my writing routine (once I have the mental and emotional space to do so).
