The creative process is so fascinating to me. I don't think there's anything quite like it.

I never have the perfect combination of words. :) Writing is simply compulsory. Therapy and a gift, simultaneously.

I hate it when the PERFECT combination of words comes to me, and then I sit down to write it out, and I can't even remember how to start. SO ANNOYING! ;-)

This happens to me all the time. I stare at a blank screen with nothing and then hours, later while making dinner, folding laundry or changing a diaper, it comes to me. Those pieces just come together.
It just goes to show that you can't force writing. It just happens.
Now if I could get it to happen when I sit down, that would be magical. ;)

Ah! SOOO true!! I was just thinking about that yesterday morning...how I have to write the thought down the MOMENT it comes to me (always while I'm busy doing something) or like you said. It's gone.

Sometimes I'll be laying bed at night and something BRILLIANT will come to me, but I'll be too lazy to write it down...and it doesn't matter because the thought is so brilliant I surely won't forget in the morning. And then I wake up...and nothin.

Love this post -- thanks.

That's so true! We have to continue to grasp it...even when it's at 3am, which is usually when it hits me! But then I sleep so peacefully and happily!

I need to start submiting again. The last time I published was right before my daughter was born. I haven't stopped writing but I have slacked on proofing and editing to perfection. I wonder if I even have it anymore. Maybe it is two children and a slew of messes that has sucked the ink right out of my little red pen.
