I don't understand.

I've done my research. Plotted the entire story. Fleshed out the characters.

I was so excited to start this novel.

It should be easy and fun.

The words won't form. My fingers won't move.

I've forced myself to do my morning routine—wake up, eat breakfast, practice yoga, take a shower, drink my coffee—but still can't make my mind conjure a simple sentence.

What is wrong with me?

A look at the clock reveals I've been sitting here for two hours and haven't written a darn thing. Not a single word.

Sighing in defeat, I close my laptop and stand. Maybe a quick lunch down at the local diner will help.

Except after gathering my things, I stand at the door and can't bring myself to open it.

I don't want to leave.

I'm tired.

Giving up on food, I drop my purse on the counter and drape my jacket over the barstool.

Maybe I'm getting sick, even though I don't have any symptoms besides fatigue.

I'll take a nap and wake up feeling better.

I have to.

I have a deadline to keep.
