International Writer's Blog

Is there some kind of international writers block going on? There was a time when I would start my aggregator and the set of articles that met me would make me want to write a couple of posts straight away. Over the last few weeks I have noticed a distinct lack of things that made me feel that way.

Having looked through I have noticed that the writers who used to stimulate this reaction have been a lot quieter themselves.

There are a number of possible reasons for this, but I wonder whether we are witnessing an international phenomena or whether it’s a cyclical thing that should be expected. We all know that many blogs starts, run and then fizzle out because the person has said much of what they wanted to say. We also know that it’s really hard work producing original content all the time, it’s much easier to echo someone else’s content. So are people just getting to that phase in their writing, or are we actually in a phase where there is very little to say.

Having written this I’m struck by the fact that I haven’t said anything either .
