I’m blocked! The muse has fled and left me in a puddle of no inspiration. I’ve searched through notes, tried to play with plotting, looked for images, talked it out with a few people, pretty much everything that should get the creative brain plugging on.
I’m confused about why this is dragging on.
Some of this is because of stress I’m sure. There are several things stressing out this woman. My mother living here and being responsible for her everyday care has messed with my writing schedule and space. She needs help with everything from getting her meals to showering. It’s almost as if the everyday grind of reality has squashed the fantasy world this writer lives in when the words flow.
All of my focus is her and what she needs. It’s true when they say we change places with the parent at a certain point in aging. It seems I am on-call so to speak.
Maybe I need an escape, but I’m bound here right now. Perhaps the inspiration is just on vacation.
What do you do when the cursed writers block strikes?
Cheers!

I take a break, Stevie, I ride with it. I don’t panic, I don’t gripe, I just wait it out. In the end, you win! 😀

As a caregiver, you are entitled to relief. Check into Medicare and see what they will pay for help. Also you are entitled to payment if you are the full time care giver of your parent, I think. Praying for you to have relief.
