I. Need. Inspiration.
Did I ever tell you all how much I hate writer's block? Well, I do. A lot! Even though I have tons of stories to start. I have two more sequels for the SunPie series, the My Fate series, a sequel for Reminder of Hope, I still don't know what I'm doing for Dearest of Desires. Oh and don't get me started on all the drafts I have in my archive. Ugh! Can someone just scream at me, please!? I just do not know... haha. I'll get there! I don't give up and I've never lied to you, moonies. So! Time for me to get my tiara together and get to work! Hopefully...

If you never do it, you'll feel bad, and the cycle of guilt will continue to rotate. If you just put down something, anything, it's better than nothing.

You're plenty of inspiration all on your own, Sunny.

If you say so!

If nothing else, the sooner you get it done, the quicker your mind will be free of discord.

Thanks for your adept advice!
Something that I've found helpful when I have writer's block is to try writing an outline by hand. Don't use your computer. Just sit down, think about where you want the story to go, and just write. Don't think. Don't stop. Just write.
Alternatively, put on something that's in the same genera that you want to write, and see if anything inspires you.

You're amazing. Thanks so much.

You're most welcome.
I have that problem sometimes too, but mainly I have too much inspiration from many franchises that has me stuck with multiple stories in the works, and my brain can't stay focused on one at a time.
But I'm rambling, here's my advice: try to get your creative juices flowing by making a new short story (maybe a one-shot) as a little side project to get you back in the writing game.
I hope this helped in some way.

Thank you! Those are really helpful words. I appreciate your advice.
I totes get that tons too, instead of trying to spread myself across multiple projects, I've been just focusing on one, it's helped me keep a fair bit of energy for writing and fleshing out my idea.
Also, Bounce ideas off a close friend or loved one. There is a reason most shows and movies have more than one writer credit. We all need a sound board from time to time.
