The writer's block -- fact or fiction?

So many people blame a lack of writing productivity based on this phantom "block" idea.

Hogwash.

We're lazy. Pure and simple.

It holds the same validity as someone who gets up, shuffles into the kitchen, shloshes coffee into a cup that still had some in it from yesterday, and bemoans going to work.

What? Do you have "employment block?" No. You just don't feel like going to work. You don't feel like getting dressed, going to your car, and clocking in for the umpteenth time. You don't want to talk to another customer. You don't want to file another piece of paper. You don't want to write another report. You don't want to do ANYTHING. You're lazy.

Welcome to the club. We would have t-shirts, but nobody wanted to take the time to print them.

Same with writing. You don't have a block. Your brain is amazing. It's always working, always functioning, always processing. It never crashes or restarts. It never needs refragging. It never needs a software update (rational thought 3.2)

We just don't feel like putting butt in chair, fingers to keys, and rummaging through storage bins in the brain for another idea.

Isn't that was blogging is for? Now I feel like writing...
