Staring down the blank page.

Said Thomas Mann:

A writer is someone for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.

When I quoted this to a friend, he retorted:

Lucky for us, he didn't have access to the internet.

So, I made do without connecting to the internet once, just for kicks, and was able to put words down finally. Scary. It was work, and not that easy, but it happened. Hopefully it'll happen again, and again, and again...with a healthy frequency.
