Do you ever just stun yourself with how uninteresting you feel sometimes? I'm in one of those phases: perfectly content, yet remarkably dull. I trust that I will come out of this at some point, but at the moment, I'm feeling a little panicky at my brain's creative sluggishness and my consequent blogger's block. It's become important to me to post something every week ... it's a lovely little outlet, and good practice to keep it up, I think.
So I'm going to cheat a little and direct you to a wonderful blog I've been reading for the past while—seven hundred fifty words. The author, my friend Amy, possesses more than enough creativity to cover off my embarrassing dry spell. She's set herself the task of writing seven hundred and fifty words every single day, and though she felt overwhelmed by this when she first started a couple of months ago, she's very much in her element now and real-life proof of the rewards of practice. Her writing is personal, honest, and fluid, and most of her posts have a universal appeal to them. Enjoy!
