Pack Rats Zilch Writer's Block

Last year at this time, my cancer survivor husband (yes, he suffered rare cancer—Pseudomyxoma Peritonei PMP), helped me move my office from a dinky laundry area to an upstairs bedroom. The move proved several things to me:

I can store more stuff in small spaces than most.

I never throw out precious prized possessions. (found cards from our wedding; daughters notes from before she married—twenty-seven years ago; drawings from granddaughters; a promise from husband to stay with me forever and always—written on a napkin fifteen years ago, and an insurance policy I didn’t know I owned. The list goes on.)

Writers are pack rats with just cause. We need this material for the someday article, novel or possible big sale.

Freelancer should wait four years between moves. It’s dangerous. I cannot believe the dirt I found under my desk, and I thought myself relatively clean individual.

If I moved every year, I know I’d downsize more. This is too much work.

Are you experiencing writer’s block? Get healthy, wealthy and wise. Move your office. You’ll jog the fog, smell better, and release any writer’s block that might have accumualated.
