Austin Powers once said 'I've lost my mojo'. That's how I feel now - I haven't written anything for months and if someone ask me I can't even come up with something clever to write on a birthday card. I used to have so many words and sentences in my head and lately I can't print them down. It's quite terrifying actually... maybe it doesn't seem that important - so she can't write stupid stuff, so what? - but to me it is. Writing is the only thing I've ever known that I excelled in. With the risk of sounding very ego - the only thing I knew my friends would never beat me at. The ability to take a stand for something and then twist it so much you can't tell if I'm pro or con. To be able to come up with a rhyme in 2 minutes, to make up completely mental stories that no one would believe even if I had pictures of them (not that I've done that though :-D).
Maybe writing is like everything else - you have to work on it to keep it, and if you don't it'll fade away. Maybe I should just start writing nonsense in here that no one'll ever read, like I did years ago somewhere else. Not sure it's the solution to my problem, but it might be a little help on the way...
