Tiny Writes
Has anyone else been in this long reading/writing slump the last few weeks? I haven’t read more than 15 pages in one sitting in weeks and its absolutely killing me because I love reading & writing so much, but can’t bring myself to do either!

I'm not in a slump right now but I've been there before and it's really frustrating. Nothing feels interesting and my work feels like trash. Writing wise, my advice is to sort of force yourself to write, even though it may feel counterintuitive. I find that making myself practice, even if what I create is terrible, eventually gets me back to a productive place. Changing your routine may help as well, like using a prompt, using an image for inspiration, or writing outside instead of at a desk.
Thank you! I’ll definitely try that! I think my problem may be because of school and the trimester almost ending but over break I’ll definitely try to take your advice and ‘force’ myself to write!
