I find that any sort of break from blogging ends up blocking me big time. I start to feel like I have nothing to say. Not much going on. No updates on the revising front. Pretty much, I'm here and that's it.
So yeah, I've got blog block. Any cures out there?
I may need to motivate myself with another goal or something. Or, you know, just blog...

Maybe you can try one of the upcoming blogfest? They're usually good writing prompts. Or you could watch NEW MOON and profess your love for hot boy vampires. *GAG*
Speaking of hot vampires, I just saw New Moon on DVD this weekend. Since my expectations were zero, it was . . . okay. Not terrible. Lots of chisel-chested werewolf boys with no shirts. Sorry, I know this isn't helping you at all. You can always blog about how you're writing is going, or not going. Books you've read?
Sorry to hear you have blog block. But you really can write anything that comes to mind. Even short. Or you can try one of the contests or blogfests around to get you back in the swing of things. Good luck. :)
I recently got inspired for a blog after rummaging through - I mean cleaning out - my kids' bedroom bookshelves. It inspired a lot of nostalgia...and a blog.
Go ahead and just blog. That's what I always do. Sometimes ideas come as I type, other times I ramble. Either way, it's nice to communicate with my fellow writers. (It's nice to know you aren't alone) Have a nice Sunday!
Did you just read my comment above? I went over the thing twice without seeing the three nices. Terrible. I need a thesaurus!
I find this happening to me now and then. I used to worry about it more but lately, I'm not fretting as much because I feel like as long as my writing is going well with my stories, I'm not as worried about my blogging. =]
Glad to know you're still here :) I would like to read about things that work for you with your writing. But maybe you've done a gazillion of those!
I know the feeling. I never plan blog posts in advance. Sometimes I start typing and figure out something to say, other times I just skip a blogging day. All depends on if I have something to say or not.
I have the perfect post for you!

I know what you mean. When you post a lot it seems like ideas are everywhere and you can't decide which to blog about first. But if you get out of the habit for a bit, you wonder what the heck is interesting enough to say.
What's a blogfest? I need to check that out.
Or you could post pictures of Bowzer!!!
I hate blog block. It happens to me all the time. It will pass.
throw a contest - that always helps me when i have blog block
I find the same thing. In fact I keep a note book of ideas just for these occassions.
Find a cool quote or picture that always gets me thinking. Wow - you've got some talent - I just noticed the previous post. That Darth Vadar is awesome.
You guys always have the best ideas! I'm hopping back on the blog bus...
