Writer's Schlock 5/5/2021 7:52:25 AM
Some days you hit line drives, other days it's the old can can of corn Do you have days when writing is a chore, when it's not a matter of writer's block but of writer's schlock and you're just not feeling it?
Certainly it happens to me, and when it does I don't give myself the day off but establish a goal of writing one sentence or paragraph to have something written. Funny thing, it's those chapters that were a grind that I am able to give the verdict "this turned out pretty decent" following third or fourth rewrites.
