And not bein...CFS is a...well you know what CFS is. And not being able to write can frustrate the bejeebers out of you. Don't let despondency take a hold, Eleni. Keep that chin above water and take note of your troubles today and make sure you don't repeat your work overload. Unfortunately, as you said, those who suffer with CFS are lumbered with some serious limitations. Respect them and you'll respect yourself.<br /><br />I think your problem is more that you have a need to write, rather than a responsibility (which is what consumes most of your time at the moment) and your need is being denied. That need being denied usually turns me into one of the nastier characters in my books. :) As Janni said, let yourself chill. Promise your hero and heroine you'll get to them. Tell them to go off and sort their stories out so that when you have time to pen them the words will flow.<br /><br />Your work commitments will ease - eventually, just keep that in mind and your writing will always be there. :) <br /><br />Hope the workers that come along to fix your blocked road are, shall we say 'inspiring'?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871421659562888277.post-71646099483978574432012-05-24T09:56:13.288+10:002012-05-24T09:56:13.288+10:00I agree with Janni - sometimes we take ourselves t...I agree with Janni - sometimes we take ourselves too seriously and need to chillax for a bit, it's great for the muse.<br />I should know - very little productivity this year!! But, it's made me more aware of where I want to go with my writing, sometimes you just have to smell the roses to see the wood through the trees BWGMel Teshcohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12945507690555119380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8871421659562888277.post-90075008110769607452012-05-24T07:30:07.894+10:002012-05-24T07:30:07.894+10:00Sometimes you just need to take a step back and ch...Sometimes you just need to take a step back and chill.
