I seem to have a constant case of writer's block. I know what I want to write, I just can't write it. All my writing seems to be accidents(well my poetry anyway).
I often have to force myself to write novels but I do still write for probably at least half an hour a day.

Writing is a drug.

Like Heroin, Meth, or Coacaine.

I am addicted to it. I need it. Therefore, it is apart of my daily routine. Get up, eat breakfast, do chores, and write. I usually write for more or less an hour a day. Usually, that entails two typewritten 12-pt. font pages.

I guess it depends on how i feel on that given day. Yesterday I barley posted, but today I'm on a role. Go Me! :)
I will always fight back, no matter what.

It depends on how much inspiration I have at that moment, and how long my attention span is going to be so that I can focus. It also depends on how many distractions I'm going to have- mainly, my father wanting me to do crap around the house, and wanting me to go to bed earlier than I'm now used to because of summer since school starts on Wednesday for me.

No pattern really. Sometimes I write so many pages. Most of the time I write one sentence. ( :cry:) Other times, I write a few words. ( :P )
I guess it depends on inspiration..
Be yourself; everybody else is already taken.

I came, I saw, I conquered.

I prewirte in my sleep! It's not funny! It keeps me up all night, wondering,
thinking of names, and generally getting no sleep!

Anyway, I try to write daily. I have a dozen notebooks and one journal, none of them full.

I write sporadically. I start with the intention of writing only a few paragraphs to get started, and don't stop until I run out of Paper.
Just a thought.

I write a few paragraphs each day and this usually takes fifteen or so minutes. On good days I get two hours of non-stop writing.

Unfortunately, most of my writing each day is taken up by papers for school (1-3 hrs). After that, I usually spend time plotting (1-2 hrs), and unfortunately, haven't written any actual prose for a while. Though once I sit down and get to it, I usually spend hours at a time for the whole weekend.
  








i like that the title of dr jekyll and mr hyde makes a clear stance that the embodiment of one’s own evil doesn’t get a claim to the doctorate
