WTB (Want to Buy) Inspiration

April 15th, 2010 at 08:48 pm

I feel like I’ve neglected this site. I renewed it for the reason that it is my way to express myself. While I have books upon books to write in for that reason, you can’t really share it with others. I need a new layout, and I was working on one, but I might scrap it out of fear that it’s too bright. Want to buy inspiration; anyone have any for sale?

Hell, even writing can be hard for me at times. I would write a bit and about 5 minutes later, I’m bored. Maybe I am growing out of this site. Dunno, but I really need to rekindle the flame for this site.

Any suggestions?

I’ve had many people suggest to me the “butt in chair” method. Just stay there for a set amount of time until something comes out. Write about nothing, write about whatever, just keep your fingers typing until all the other thoughts work themselves out and you’re left with something useful.

Another method is to go do something else. Tell yourself you can’t write no matter what. Ever notice what happens when you can’t do something? You suddenly want to do only that. So, set yourself a time limit, a week, a month, where you can’t write at all. Give it long enough that something will come to you that you just have to write, but you can’t until the end of your deadline. Only then can you write, and you’ve had a whole month (or week or whatever) to think about what you want to say.

Or try both.

To be honest, I stopped coming here because all you’ve been doing is ads. I think the first thing you need to do is start writing real entries. A layout would help tremendously I’m sure, but again you need to want to do it and not just say that’s what you want/need for any of it to do any real good.

Hoi Thar.

Crestfallen is the 3.5-year-old site of a sarcastic 20-something natural-born New Yorker/California implant who goes by the name Nat Marie most days, but answers to many other things, including Shadow, Chickenhead, and "Hey Bitch!". She has a love for writing, performing arts, and cats (albeit allergic to them). You will find love, life, and a lot of writing and sarcasm sprinkled in. Enjoy.
