Not that I’m any sort of accomplished writer. I’ve always struggled with the fact that I can never seem to finish anything I’ve started, but I’ve never struggled with being able to start something.

Until now. Suddenly, where it comes to setting pen to paper (or, more realistically, fingers to keyboard), I’m completely, hopelessly stuck. It’s driving me absolutely insane. I always have a few ideas floating around in my head, just waiting to be put into words, but even those are running rather low now. So, few ideas, and an inability to even put the few I have into words.

Gah.
