This is just another in a long string of many many nights where I park myself in front of blank paper, and stare at it. Nothing is coming out. Even my normally fruitful visits to the gym, or the toilet, are for naught--no ideas spring forth in vivid colour, ready to be spilled onto the paper.
I feel the pages are beginning to mock my failure. Taunting me with the blank whiteness, insulting my lack of inspiration. My sketchbooks are full of old ideas, jotted down in a moment of overwhelm in an effort to preserve the concept for a time like this, but even old ideas fail to get my fingers moving.
My poor Copics are gathering dust in a corner, and it hurts my heart.

The sword hums as it goes by
The only thing that has helped me, in terms of inspiration, is picking something out of the norm that I normally do (lately, animals) and reading flowery Victorian literature (I highly recommend Lord Dunsany [link] - you can get his stuff via Project Gutenberg - [link] )
