Writer's Boot Camp: Day One

Breaking Up With Writer's Block

Dear Writer's Block,

We had a good run, you and I.  I spent more time co-writing with someone else, sticking to their stories versus coming up with my own.  Thanks to you, I suppose it made me more agreeable to my writing buddy - following along with whatever she wanted.  I kept trying to return to my own stories, desperate to write them and get my words out.  My own words.

Thanks to you, however, dear Writer's Block, I never got far.  However, that ends now.  I've started my dream journal once again and with it comes Inspiration.  And Inspiration has treated me far better than you ever have, Writer's Block.

I could go on and on, but I won't.  What you need to know is that we are over.  Kaput.  I'm done being enslaved by you.  Leave me in peace and find someone else.  There's bound to be someone out there far more receptive to your wily charms.

Best of luck to you, Writer's Block, and one final 'fuck you' from me, to you.

Best Regards,

The Author
