It’s time you updated your blog.
I want to but it’s a struggle. The thoughts are too foggy and the words are eluding me.
How about a story in 55 words? Certainly, you can manage that.
You think that is a cake walk?
Don’t give excuses, just start writing.
Ok, if you insist. Here it goes…

Quite a struggle, isn’t it? But you managed well in those 55 words. It’s a start, Shilpa. I’m going through a similar phase. Haven’t written the five sentence iction series in a while. It’s not writer’s block for me, though. Just not getting enough time to brainstorm and write. Looking forward to read more drabbles in 55.
You bet, some days it is a struggle. Even the blank page must be fed up of staring back at me. Sigh!
Hope you get back to your writing rhythm soon, Vinitha and thanks for dropping by 🙂
Very smart one!
Seems like you’ve been travelling and have every excuse not to update your blog.
Yes, there’s a lot on my plate, but guess these are excuses and I need to pull up my socks. Thanks Corinne, glad you liked this attempt. 🙂
Liked how you wrote a story in the briefest of words.Superb technique.
Thanks a lot, Amrita. Glad you liked this one 🙂
Loved it shilpa ! blessings to you 🙂
Thank you so much, Genevive. ♥
I know Shilpa. I needed that today. To give myself a push. Thanks for that!
I hope you get back in your writing groove, Jayashree. Looking forward to read your fun stories and anecdotes 🙂
This is a good one.
Thanks a lot, SG 🙂
At least you are writing in your blog. And 55 words, too. Woohooo! Aside from the challenges, I don’t do much blogging. I need that pressure and camaraderie to make me write as I don’t have a regular blogging routine going with an email list and all that. It’s easy to let it slip to the back burner and think it’s not overly important.
You are amazing with words and your poems rhymes are so fluid. You must write more often, Cathy. Agree with you that the blogging challenges truly push us and I love the camaraderie too. When I am busy and cant update the blog, it’s fine with me. But when I have the time to write and I dont/cant write, that distresses me. 😛
Naaaice!
Thankssss 🙂
🙂 Updating is a challenge. Seems you’ve done it again!
Barely managed to do it 😛
I agree with a previous comment – at least you are writing! You’ll crack it. I also want to update/refresh my blog – but o my goodness …
Thanks Susan. Yeah, just challenged myself and finally managed to write these 55 words.
You can do it too. I like the clarity and depth of your thoughts and look forward to read more from you 🙂
Tough at times, even if means to write about being blocked. But you did a nice interpretation in such a short word count! 😀 Loved it.
Yes, it’s truly challenging a times. Glad that I managed somehow! 🙂
“I want to but it’s a struggle. The thoughts are too foggy and the words are eluding me.” … this is exactly what I am going through.
Ah, I can empathize with you, Sheethal. But do challenge yourself and start writing. Like they say, that if a writer’s block is staring at you, describe it’s shape, colour and texture 😀
That’s one smart way to beat the block. Hope you find your muse soon enough.
All fingers crossed 😀
Lovely written , this W is disturbing me too, mind is totally blocked
Hope you break the writing block real soon, Monika!
