The Frustration of COVID-Induced Writer’s Block

Finally, I have free time…and this happens

You know there are days when I desperately crave to write something.

The days where I’m just too busy with life. The days where I’m getting my ass kicked by work, relationships, life, bills, and everything in between. Somewhere amidst all of that, I just want to stop, ask for a break, and just write stuff.

It could be something stupid. Or psychologically revealing. Maybe it’s a well, articulated thought out piece, or something in between. I just need to write…

Anything.

Lately, that’s becoming surprisingly difficult. Like many people, I too am experiencing the weariness of being forced to stay indoors as we weather the coronastorm (yep that’s a word I just made up and added to my laptop’s dictionary.)

It’s pretty tough, and bit depressing to write like this. My writing is often inspired by my adventures in life. Whether they are positive experiences that enlighten my soul, or just one of my many trials and tribulations, those experiences added so much value to my life. They were the best of times, and sometimes, they just fucking sucked. But overall, I was inspired in the end.
