If I was going to write something, I'd need to stop for three months and just see if I had any thoughts in there.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I haven't stopped writing which is good. I'm scared to stop completely otherwise it might lead to stagnancy.
If I went for too long without writing, I would start to feel like something inside me was dying.
It's the hardest thing in the world to dedicate to writing, but if you do that even once a week, after six months or a year you'll have something substantial.
I go through periods of not writing. Until there's something I can't find in the world that I need, so I write.
I always write after I think for quite a long time, so the actual writing time is rather short. I think a lot of the work gets done when you have something on your mind while you're doing many other things.
I've tried to quit writing several times, but I enjoy it too much.
Once I start writing, I can't stop.
I have a writing addiction.
I figure that that has a ten year cycle. At the end of that ten years, I began to get worried that I would run into what is known as the writer's block, the feeling of not being able to do these things.
When I get started each day, I read through and correct the previous day's 2,000 words, then start on the next. As I reach that figure, I try to simply stop and not go on until reaching a natural break. If you just stop while you know what you're going to write next, it's easier to get going again the next day.
