Oh, also a relevant note - whenever writing feels like I have words-constipation I think of this quote:

“When you're chasing a big goal, you're supposed to feel good a third of the time, okay a third of the time, and crappy a third of the time...and if the ratio is roughly in that range, then you're doing fine.”

-Olympic Athlete Alexi Pappas

Stuckness is something you're supposed to feel

"Why is it that whenever I can’t write it feels like there’s nothing good to read?" is such a illuminating quote in the middle of all that 'stuckness'. The haystack may be thicker, but you still find words that pierce :)
