Right now I'm feeling pretty cracked, so hopefully some light will come through. I often tried to journal but for some reason I can't keep up with it. I like the idea of doing the writing exercises--I'll try that. Thanks, lirone, for the website too and the encouragement! That’s very true about art, Tom.

So maybe you need to leave your writing project for a while and simply write about the hits you've taken. Easy for me to say as I'm not a professional writer of course! But I've found the idea of doing writing practices really helpful - there's a blog that I found most inspiring - www.redravine.wordpress.com. Hang on in there, anyway!
