Creative Block...

...and this time it's heavy.

I get this pretty much annually, around this quiet time of the year. It takes a massive toll on everything I try to do, for pleasure or out of necessity. I can spend days doing absolutely nothing and still feel nothing click. I can sit with all my tools round me and get no flicker of an idea. I even try going minimalist, locking myself in a room with nothing but a biro and a notebook. Still no lyrics, no images, no development of work, no plans, no communication - The wall.

Basically I'm in this place and I can't do anything to shift the car onward. My acoustic guitar strings are broke, I'm not enjoying my current Uni project, I have commissions I keep forgetting about and, at the end of all things, I just don't care about anything but the creative and communicative, both of which are on hold.

I'm jamming with a mate on Tuesday - Maybe that'll spark me back up. Until then, it's blues all the way.
