A Weird Kind Of Enjoyment

The enjoyment that comes from writers block is the knowledge that I’m not going to produce something poor. If I don’t write another song, no one, including myself, can be critical.

There’s nothing to evaluate. Because I need the next song to be good, I stop writing, and there’s a measure of satisfaction in being above criticism.

And … it may be that this understanding, this realisation, this self awareness might in itself change the relationship that I have with writing. ?
