The pen is akin to a weapon. Writing is liken to wedging the sword to destroy or to defend.

After 3 years of putting down the sword, I did not created even a sentence, much less a whole fic.

The brain becomes blunt once creation is no longer one of its required function. Euphemism becomes impossible, typo is too common to be funny anymore.

Writing is like martial arts, requiring constant and consistent practice.

Choosing to pick up the pen again has proven to be harder than anticipated for someone who had been writing most part of her life.

Stumbling over words and phrases is no fun, the flow coming out all choppy and confused is not y.

I can't help second-guessing myself.....am I prepared to go through all this to wedge the pen again?
