So I have a problem...

Geez, that sounds ominous.

I just mean I'm having a problem writing. I want to write. I have a jillion ideas in my head (as always), but when I want to put them down on paper...

Bupkus.

(Or is it bupkis? Anyhow...)

Nothing seems to have me fired up.

I mean, I think about all my ideas, and I start sketching out stories, and it seems like I just kind of...talk myself out of finishing it.

I just came up with a pretty fun idea for a screenplay, and I did a rough outline of the story, and I think it works...but I don't think anyone will make it.

And it's bigger than anything I want to attempt to make on my own, so why write it, you know?

I just want someone to say, "If you write X, people will read X. It will be seen by the world!"

Naturally, this is all very ironic considering that I'm writing on an anonymous, unknown blog. But I'm chock full of irony...

I can't make the puzzle pieces fit together. I feel like I've got the pieces of 3 different puzzle sets on the table, and none of the sets have all the pieces needed. Still, I keep trying to jam pieces from Puzzle A into pieces from Puzzle B. Nothing fits perfectly, but I'm still trying to finish this piece of art.

I'm a writer with nothing to write.

How's that possible?
