I agreed. Writer's block is no fun. I remember sitting at my kitchen table (my then young children sleeping soundly above in their warm beds) while I stare at the page. One paragraph written and yet nothing more. That night was pure anguish.
The cure for most things for me is to go work in my garden. There's always work to be done and sometimes the answers come when I least expect them.
That's how it goes sometimes, hahaha! Sometimes I'll sit for two hours and only get a page or two hammered out.
Worth the effort in the end though!
