I've Grown Tired of This Body, Cumbersome and Heavy
When I say I don't have muse I'm 10xs more frustrated then the person I'm replying to because I've been trying to write for the past hour but it's not working. I'm unable to convey the feeling I want in the post.Maybe this isn't a feeling every writer gets though, for some people writing is WAY easier. I think you would mean a block in that case because you're not saying you're not inspired to write, you're saying you struggle with how to compose your post. (edit: lack of muse = lack of interest; block = loss of ability to work.) Often times I find when I'm struggling, it's likely because the other person wrote too much (i.e. didn't give my character room to react), too little, or something is way OOC. When that happens, I just talk to my partner to iron out the kinks and then I can write. I think when you're struggling like that, it's best to discuss with your partner. For art and writing both, sometimes I just go "awh, f*ck it." and just write/draw and submit. It doesn't have to be good, it just has to get done. So, it's likely not easier for some people, they just pick and choose their battles. If I procrastinate on a hard post, it just makes it harder to do and less motivating. XD As some saying goes, just gotta get over that hump. Edit: this post is ironic considering my last post. XD Maybe I say these things to keep myself motivated -wiggles brows- I really don't care enough to argue anymore, so I'm not gonna respond anymore after this, but my whole entire point was your definition of muse is different to me and muse and inspiration are NOT interchangeable to me. Muse is a mix of not being able to write and also lack of ideas, but has nothing to do with desire. But the idea that I would be RPing with you, sit there and try for hours to write something for you, get really frustrated I can't, come to you and tell you I'm having muse issues and you'd be like. "Hey you're just not trying, just tell me you don't feel like it." Would really really hurt.
