I Tried to Seduce My Writer's Block. It Ghosted Me
<p>There’s a special kind of humiliation in being left on read by your own imagination.</p><p></p><p> I should’ve seen the signs. The way Writer’s Block would linger just out of reach, teasing me with half-formed ideas before vanishing for weeks. I’d set the mood for the perfect writing date. A new pen, a new book....but Writer’s Block would smirk over my shoulder and whisper, "Not today"and then leave me staring blankly.</p><p></p><p>I tried everything. I dressed up for it, wore my good socks, the ones I always wear when I'm flowing creatively. I flirted with prompts and past writings only to get one pathetic sentence before the silence returned. Writer’s Block didn’t even have the decency to break up with me properly( sighs dejectedly).</p><p></p><p>"Hey, wanna brainstorm?"I’d type at 2 AM. It left me on delivered. AGAIN!</p><p></p><p>The worst part? Writer’s Block was seeing other people. I’d open social media to find people posting amazing things while my Notes app was just a graveyard of abandoned openings. </p><p></p><p>So I did what any scorned writer would do,I faked it. I The result? Horrible! The kind that makes you cringe reading it back. </p><p></p><p>Now, when Writer’s Block whispers "Not today,"I whisper back: "Fine. I’ll do it without you."And sometimes, that’s enough to make it jealous.</p><p></p>
