This is going to be a brief post. When you have hit that point where fear stops you, take a break. When you have hit that point where you just don't have the energy to push forward on that project, take a break. And when you have too many things going on in the day to make time for the project, take a break.
Writing is part of your life. That means that it is not the sole reason you live. You have to stop working to eat, sleep, and tend to your bodily needs, after all. When life gets in the way of writing, it is alright to take a break and attend to the matters of life that are in the way. In my case, it was doctor's appointments last week and chronic migraines this month. Things happen that keep us from hitting word count every day.
We must remember we are not machines. And we must remember that even machines breakdown from overwork. If you have reached your limit, take a tactical withdrawal and attempt an end run around it when you are ready. Because the well always fills up again with water when you are patient enough to stop drawing long enough to let it fill.
