Date: 2011-08-23 02:38 pm (UTC)Regarding the pulling teeth thing. Yes. There needs to be a word for this, because it's nothing like so nebulous or excuse-like as 'writer's block'. It's that thing where it just doesn't happen - whatever the 'it' you're currently wrestling with is. And it sucks. My solution is usually to either walk away, or work on something completely different that I never intend to use, thus enabling me to sneak up on the thing I actually want to do, and write it when it's least expecting it.
