Exertus.

I’ve wanted to write for a while now. It’s been far too long. I seem to always get into this mode where I think that I can only post something if I have something to say. And then when I do have something to say it’s been so long since I’ve posted that I completely forget that I have somewhere to say the things I want to say. But it’s not always about having something to rant on or having to speak your mind. Sometimes it’s simply about writing. Having an outlet for creativity. And whenever I actually write in something like this it always seems to help me regain some creativity. And I need that right about now.

I’ve been working on some new music lately. But the one part that always slows down my writing process is the lyrics. And I’ve found that simply writing about anything and everything helps to get all the nonsense out of my head so that I can hear the words and phrases that could be lyrics for a song. Sort of like a Spring Cleaning for the mind. Getting rid of all the crap that has accumulated in my brain so that I can be eloquent with my writing instead of just using clichés. So I’ve decided on a project. This undertaking will involve a minimum of 250 words per day, for seven straight days, beginning this Monday. I will post every evening for a solid week about whatever comes to mind. Hopefully this will help clear enough space for me to be more productive again. I’m sure it won’t be very interesting, but who knows? Maybe I’ll write about mundane things, maybe I’ll write a fictional short story. Whatever happens I am convinced that it can only help.
