A Tribute to dream girl

There is this girl
A sort of contradiction


Angelic-sweet
She is any man's temptation

The witch has cast such a spell
She has become an addiction

Her care overwhelms me
So does her unflinching devotion

What I fear is
She holds the keys to my annihilation

WRITER'S BLOCK

Wikipedia: Writer's block is when somebody gets a temporary loss of ability to begin or continue writing, usually due to lack of inspiration or creativity. Writer's block can also be a hindrance even when the writer feels that they already have a story in mind but can get no further than part of that story.

Yeah, am suffering from what they call the writer's block. I haven't penned a single story in about two years. The last story I had penned was in late 2009. In that story, 'the occultist', I had experimented with the style of writing of Manoj Das. While I wasn't quite satisfied with the final outcome, it did manage to get good feedback from my friends. Since then, not even a single short story. I have also had ideas on writing an experimental novel, or novella but such plans don't fructify when you have a busy training schedule. Also, I believe I need to first evolve as a writer before going for writing novels.

I think what I lack most now is ideas. I don't have any core ideas to develop. I have a way with words, and can weave an interesting story around ideas. The problem is, of late I am not getting many good ideas. I guess rather than waiting for ideas to come to me I should go out and interview friends about anything interesting in their life. It is said that fact is more weird than fiction... why then can't fact form the basis of fiction?

Got any ideas? Any past history close to your heart? Do tell me...
