I get what you mean. Been going through a slump myself, and I’ve had cycles of burn-out and inspiration in the past. This job does take its toll, specially if you’ve gone into that “mass production of articles” mentality.

If it’s burn-out, maybe you need more balance in your life? Go out more, spend time with family, give your brains a rest.

But do get back on the horse ASAP!

Contacting clients is a good first step; most are understanding if you explain. Forcing yourself to write a paragraph at a time might help you regain your momentum. And if you need support you can talk to me if you want. I welcome a conversation with a fellow writer anytime.

Good luck! Will pray for you.

hey.. that’s quite sad but I think you are burnout.

Sometimes I experience the same thing. I slack off for days.. sometimes for weeks.. and I allow it to happen. Sort of retreating to recharge my energy..

Don’t worry, you will be back in full gear soon..

@ kay: that’s really true. but other than that. social networking sites distracts me. but so far I had been good in controlling myself. I’d really love to talk to you one of these days.

by the way, I’m now back to business.

@ xpat: I really think so. Aside from that, I had been quite disappointed that I had not been able to reach my targets last year. But right now, I’m glad to be back to business.
