ugh... you again? enough! p l e a s e, enough... writer's block! just leave me alone. r e m o v e... the crippling hex you've put on me. I need no vacation! q u i t sucking dry the ink in my pen; allow it to s k a t e from point A to B! let it flow freely, I implore you... just let it bleed! you seem to enjoy sticking to me like a stamp on an envelope.... I need some room to b r e a t h e! please, leave me alone! q u i t stifling my creativity. you've pinioned the wings of my imagination! snip off the strings so it takes flight a g a i n. bother me no more, I said. leave me alone!

Occurs from time to time … a way of the universe whispering ‘it’s me, not you, that writes’

That muse tends to be moody from time to time. Well said, Edward. Who hasn't experienced this hurdle in creativity!
