I never really feel that Im stuck. I actually think that people are never stuck, theres no such thing as writers block, I think that theres terror that can silence you. But if you can think of it as a dynamic thing I mean a writers block, its a paralysis an immobility and the thing that has immobilized you is a very powerful force. Immobility is itself an act, its a choice. It can sometimes take as much energy to remain immobile as it does to be mobile. And if you think of it in a dynamic way then itd freeze you from the sense that at some point your talent will simply abandon you and youre just a vacant shell with nothing to say, I dont think that ever really happens. But I think that terror, bad experience, trauma and so on can absolutely silence you.
