Seriously, it feels like they possess me and force me to write stories, some of which are good and some of which suck.

From September to November of last year I wrote sixty fanfiction short stories, as well as one original story. Looking back, most of the plots are nonsensical, but I'm still proud of the prose.

Here's the weird thing: it felt like I was writing without even thinking about it. The words poured out of me as though I was possessed. Creative ideas sprung out of my head so fast that I actually physically hurt if I couldn't write, and I easily popped out over 2,000 words a day.

...and now I've got nothing. I stare at a blank page and will myself to write with the same speed I did last year. But nothing works. And it saddens me. Even if my stories aren't necessarily good, I love writing them because of the shared universe I'm building across multiple properties. It hurts not being able to write for it. :(
