Writer's Block

I've got huge writer's block.  Not because I don't know what to write, but because I'm finding that I don't want to deal with the emotions that I think will be stirred up if I start writing again.  When you start thinking about life, and your past, you're inevitably going to stir up some uncomfortable things.  I've been circling around what I need to write about for a few months, and now it's time to dig in.  I'm going to light up my pipe, pour some apple brandy, and dive in and see what happens.  It's time to get cracking.
