Over time, I’ve seen a number of bloggers, authors, etc., talk about their challenges with writer’s block.
It’s a rare thing for me, but I have experienced it. From my desk, the bigger challenge is finding the time to write all there is to say.
Lately, it’s been a huge challenge. Not the block, but the block of time I need.
And the challenge has manifested itself from the simple approach of not caring too much about it and just living my life.
When I quit caring and just live, the writing possibilities become almost endless.
The life experience really is the writer’s palette (that sounds way more sophisticated than I really am) and living life well allows us to paint some beautiful pictures.
Just recently…
- When I go on a short 2-day weekend trip I find this: https://wp.me/p2bjEC-mu
- And have just enough audacity to walk into a local dive and ask this guy for a 15-minute interview. What’s to lose? The result: https://wp.me/p2bjEC-mN
- I take a 100-yard walk on that weekend trip and this jewel appears: https://wp.me/p2bjEC-n9
- Fourth of July in the back yard becomes this: https://wp.me/p2bjEC-lC
- A short drive inspires this idea and it’s something I wish you all would really consider: https://wp.me/p2bjEC-oF
- A trip to the laundry screams for this post: https://wp.me/p2bjEC-jp
- And when I take a look around me at church, this is the result and the comments pour in on this topic: https://wp.me/p2bjEC-q1
Finding it hard to put things in words?
Writer’s block got you pinned to the mat?
Go live your life, man. Go live your life.

Well, it’s worth everything you paid for it, at least. Did I see a new design on your site? It looks amazing.

yes, Steven, from the movie “The Help.” Have you seen it? Your emphasis of black and whites goes right along with this.
Great movie. Based on truth.
