OMG!!! This really made me feel better, because I've been working on a teen fiction novel (a couple actually), that hasn't really made any progress in about two months. It's honestly as if the muse has taken an extended vacation and has only stopped to send me a post card saying, "today is not the day for me to come back. Tomorrow doesn't look good either."
Thanks, Jackson. I have been feeling some guilt not only over the fact that I have yet to finish any of the books that I wanted to be published, but also over the fact that my struggle over procrastination has gotten me behind in school work. Your video has given the will to get up and just get it done. Thanks :)
*sigh* I feel relieved to know that it's NOT just me! I've been in a stump for about a month now. Working and working out so much kinda helped to that. It's all been coming back to me, though. So I'm happy about that. ^_^
I feel some guilt too. I made a personal deadline of finishing my first book by April (or sooner) but I haven't been able to write on it much due to the new school semester starting and going the tons of homework assigned. Anyways, Great video! I hope your creative metaphor muse comes back and gives you something new to write soon. I love reading your books!
I haven't worked on my book since NaNoWriMo... I've been filling out these little 100-word prompts partly for fun, and partly just to get back in the swing of things. So yeah. Feelin' kinda guilty about that.
When I finished writing the first version of my book I couldn't continue to the second (it's a trilogy) because I had to edit the first one first and it was kinda frustrating because I just couldn't do anything. Before that every single moment was filled with writing. But fortunately now I'm able to work again :) So good luck!
I'm always feeling guilty about not writing, but my not writing has been going on longer than a couple months... I haven't finished a book in over a year now and I have very little motivation to go on... so yeah, it's poop because writing is awesome and fun and I miss it but my mind is being a butt... Anyways, I hope your muse comes back soon. :]

i know what you mean, I haven't even updated my current writings in about a year - even more so with the writings I started years ago.
Thankfully I'm not living off of my writing currently or I'd be fucked...
