On having a Muse.

[The Johnny]

id like to tell you guys about my anti-muse.

my anti-muse is thinking (knowing?) that talking or discussing or expressing important things appropiately require a lot of time and effort, not just on the part of communicating it, but on the part of having fundamentation to back it up appropiately.

shut up or engage balls to the wall, that is my dichotomy

i consider myself to be in the battlefield of ideas, and im not about to engage with a makeshift sling with rocks

if i cant muster up at least 8 to 10 pages of solid cohesive argumentation, i feel like im wasting my time, and others time too

this makes me a bit sad, because my interactions here dont go beyond preaching to the choir... so many important points to be made and such little time

im doing my best to walk the talk, but im falling short of talking the walk (as stupid as that might sound)

I am fascinated  by this post, because of the intense recursion that is implied but not followed through on. Or maybe it is followed through on...

Have you tried switching to pencil and paper instead of computer for your first drafts? I've had some good luck breaking up the writers block with that trick. That and moderate to severe sleep deprivation...

I switch between computer, tablet and a notebook on a regular basis, actually.

I've been thinking some more on this, and I might be a tad wary of writing in english. I have far less trouble writing in Norwegian.

Even framework on "How to write" varies a lot with the individual.  I've never needed a muse so much as something under my skin enough.  Sort of the Spider Jerusalem method, I can't do shit when I'm not surrounded by things I loathe.

Why I won't say no to inspirational partners, I reject the idea that one is needed. 

That said, if one spurs you on, then work it dude.

I do think one spurs me on, but I really do see your point.

I am confused by this post. In a good way.

Pretty good ideas all around. Except writing in norwegian. That might slow me down some.
But i think i will try this idea of trying to address someone in order to get the ideas out.

I totally think you should try to write a poem in Norwegian, though!
