Itâs perfectly all right; I think every writer goes through this at some point! I once told Claudia how I found myself just staring into space and having to see whatâs happening in my mind so clearly, but the words werenât just coming out at all, and she told me that she experienced this, too!
One of the best advices I heard is from Anne Lamott: âAlmost all good writing begins with terrible first efforts. You need to start somewhere. Start by getting something â anything â down on paper.â Simple, but very effective when the going gets tough.
So, please, donât be afraid! Just keep writing. â„ïž

P.S. Well, technically, the Haystack was formed to cater to extended confessions so it makes sense that everything in it right now is in the POV of the confessor/writer. đ
