Bad Mood? Start Writing
The last couple of days I’ve felt, well sort of funky in the morning; not exactly in a bad mood, but unenthusiastic about my writing. Nothing in particular has been wrong… just a case of the blahs.
The solution has been pretty simple. I’ve started on whatever writing project was up even though I didn’t want to. (Do I sound like a two-year old?)
Sure enough, in five or ten minutes, my mood shifted and I got interested in what I was doing. Sometimes my muse needs a gentle kick to kick in.
Write well and often,

If I could always write without having to handle all of the weighty matters of running a business, I think I would be a good mood most of the time. There is something about releasing creative juices that stimulates the person.
