for me it's finding / catching / holding the spark. or thats what i call it at least. on the poll i put it as 'mood / motivation'. but like, when i get the spark the words flow like water & the story writes itself. characters come to me fully formed with their own names & i get to know them while writing the same way readers get to know them by reading. characters surprise (and sometimes annoy) me with their decisions, but the story just happens. sometimes i can't even stop it if i try.
but when i dont have that spark, nothing happens. there's no words & no energy & i'm completely disconnected with writing. can't even edit or anything. feels like being adrift at sea, no port, no destination, no drive. worst thign is i dont know how to find the spark it jsut comes & goes as it pleases.
