Really Writingblock'd Right Now...

I know I have some stuff that needs to be done, but I just haven't been really inspired to work on them (Iugulare's Origin and a writing request)...

So uhh...anyone got anything specific they'd like to see me write? I know that's pretty vague and selfish but I'm literally out of ideas right now.

May I suggest doing something

May I suggest doing something else besides writing? During the week when I work, I’m too taxed to accomplish much when I get home. I “recharge” with more passive activities like reading. Or just browsing art on sites like Deviant Art. Nice sources of inspiration. Or cruise around in the forest doing whatever interest me.

Woden's in the forest being all silly and Wodenly, it's a nice, fun, laid back activity with little higher purpose. Eye

Vodka helps *shifty eyes*

Well I'm doing something like

Well I'm doing something like that right now, actually. I've got a list of books I want to get read and have been working on it.

Quad's Summer Reading List
* Currently Reading

The Holy Bible (New American version)
Living Christ, Living Buddha by Thich Nhat Hanh*
Be Free Where You Are by Thich Nhat Hanh
Taming the Tiger Within by Thich Nhat Hanh*
What the Buddha Taught by Walpola Rahula
Spirits of the Earth by Bobby Lake-Thom
The Book of Tea by Okakura Kakuzo
Firebringer by David Clement-Davis
Marvel Civil War - X-Men by David Hine and others

But there are days that I want to write something really badly but just have no idea what to write. That's the purpose of this post.

Thank you for the suggestion though.

Hm, like was already said,

Hm, like was already said, maybe take a break? Or try something else, maybe stream-of-consciousness writing, or something else free form that you can just do without worrying about specific plots.

I thought about writing

I thought about writing another one of my 'walks with Quad', either another one where he's just himself as a deer, or possibly one like the wolf one where he's a different animal I absolutely hate right now. I didn't know if that would be corny though, I've already had him transform into a wolf, so I was afraid people would get tired of seeing him transform into other animals too.

I think I'm gonna pop in FeralHeart soon and model him as this animal...

"The wolf may be the one to bring you sense, but I am the one to bring you fear. I've watched you from a distance, waiting for the perfect opportunity to take you down. I am quiet but powerful, and one false move will have your head in my jaws.

Are you scared, Chris?

You should be."

Or maybe I could write something non-TEF...maybe related to my meditation. Hmm...
