Greatest satisfaction in life...

"Greatest satisfaction in life is writing." It's right there at the top of this page. What do you do, then, if you can't seem to find any words? What do you do when you have the worst case of writer's block anyone has ever had? You try to start stories, or even blog posts - anything - just to try to get things rolling. As if you're dealing with an old car you think, "If I turn the crank enough maybe the engine will start and I can be on my way." You turn and you turn and you turn. The engine doesn't start. The only thing you know how to do is to write about not knowing what to do.

Inspiration is missing from my life. I want to be a writer. I've always wanted to be one. Writers are supposed to write about what they know. What can I know? I can't write, so I stay home trying to find a cure for the block. Staying home means I don't experience anything. Not experiencing means that I have nothing to write about. Thus the cycle finds itself back at the beginning.

At least I was able to form a predicate this time. I've started and ended more posts than I can count, never even getting past the first line. The block isn't just a lack of material to write. Sometimes the material is there, but the words aren't. I don't know what to do about it.
