Writing.Com General Discussion

Thank you so much. That really does help. I'm actually not sure why I never thought about finding somewhere else to write, either. Maybe getting out of my home and being in a fresh place could be really productive. I cared for my mom at home while she was fighting cancer, and that's where she passed away (and my father 20 years earlier), so there is a lot of emotional baggage associated with my home right now. I couldn't even go into her room for a few months after we lost her. Too many bad memories. It's also the house I grew up in. Just saying all that out loud makes me realize my physical environment may be interfering with my writing.

I'm definitely going to try setting a timer and making myself write at least a little every day. I know I need some guidelines for myself and that helps.

Thank you so much for taking the time to help me. It's truly appreciated.
