All you need to do is Google “writer’s block” to discern that often the hardest challenge for a writer, regardless of their skillset or experience level, can be finding the time and motivation to sit down and write. Life gets in the way, a new piece may offer unforeseen creative roadblocks, certain feedback or criticism may lead to doubt… the list of the struggles that leads to this place is endless, really, and anyone who has written for long enough has probably heard or shared countless variations of these experiences.
