Mind Block
I'm having a hard time putting words down. I have vague ideas that I may like to express but no clue as to how I'm to do this. I've done some photography today too, and wasn't too impressed with much of the shots. There is a serious lack of connection with any subject I shoot lately. I don't know what subject/idea/style to focus on. I could go for something short-esque, as long bodies of writing seem like too much commitment at this point. Anyway, anything that would kick start the creative process is welcome. Comment away and help me get something down.

i know how you feel. i'm just recovering from a dry spell from my thesis project.
my advice is to just keep doing stuff. you can always revisit old ideas later.
Picture your vague ideas as photograph, then describe the photograph.
That's kinda what I've done with the stories about Gail. Although, they were more like short movie clips. The problem with the vague ideas that have been turning in my head is that there is no object to picture. Rather it's just a feeling at the pit of your stomach and perhaps near the bottom of your neck that seems to want to get out, but can't.
Ooh, I see. When *I* have vague ideas they usually are like foggy scenes. I forgot that not everyone sees like that.
Maybe you need photos you are unfamiliar with to write about.
