*BalloonR* Welcome to WDC from "Newbie Welcome WagonOpen in new Window.! *BalloonR*

Gee. I’m not sure what to say about this piece. Different? No. Unique? Well, I have seen other pieces about writer’s block, but not quite in this style, so I guess it is kind of unique. Narcissistic? A little, because the writer is only writing about their own problems of not coming up with something to write.
Wait! I got it! How about hilarious!
They say that a writer should write to write, even if nobody else reads their words. And maybe that’s what you were doing here, but you took it to a new level. Writing down your thoughts is not only cathartic, but it can actually serve as a jumping board to write something, even if that something is nothing!
But like I said, you took it a new level, especially when you googled that part and ‘checked’, ‘pre-checked’ etc.
Truth be told, the 1st piece I ever had published was about ‘nothing’ ("NothingOpen in new Window.), and in a semi-reputable ezine at that. And all because I couldn’t think of anything to write about!
One niggle (I think):
‘Stupid(.) The Writer's Cramp contest’ (I’m pretty sure you want a comma there, right?)
This piece just goes to show that even when can’t think of anything to write about, at least write down your thoughts, whether your 6 years old or not!*Laugh*
Well done, Schnujo, and that last line says it all!
By the way, I was smiling and laughing all the way through this, because every writer has had these thoughts in their head!
Kee ponw ritin gon, have a great day, and once again, welcome to WdC!
