I swear my joints feel like they've lost all flexibility. My mind is so cluttered with ideas, all muttled together in a soup of thick fog. I know I'm writing now, but this doesn't count. I just can't find the motivation to be creative beyond one or two half-baked lines. What should I do, or better yet, what would you do?

The only time I find it hard to write is when I feel normal. Thank goodness that is not very often.

Writing is hard when you're ill. Focus on getting better, then worry about your writing. If you feel you need to keep to your writing schedule, put something down on the paper every day, but don't worry if it's only a few sentences.

Besides, once you're healthy, you'll want to edit it anyway.

Hey wheelz,

Keep a pen and paper beside you in case your muse throws something good your way. Otherwise, just wait it out until you feel better. By the by. I've found that the more I try to force it, the more tangled it gets. Just relax and let the ideas untie themselves. They will.

Hope you're already feeling better.

You write ideas and plots, rather than the story.

Once you recuperate, begin writing--from an outline to filling in the details.
