Not writing

I seem to be going through one of my periodic 'low tides' as far as my fiction writing goes. I feel that I want to write, but it just doesn't want to happen at the moment. The most notable casualty of my creative hiatus is Noctivagant, which, after having got off to a reasonable start, has rather run aground. I've still got some ideas about how to move the story on, but I can't say at the moment when, or even if, it will be resumed. That apart, I wrote one paragraph of what first struck me as a brilliant idea for a new story a few days ago, but got no further, so I've now resorted to leafing back through the notebook I kept before starting my blogs, where I had bits and pieces of another long short story or novella, according to taste, but re-reading what I've written on that front, it's even more fragmentary than I remembered. There's one very good scene, which would be close to the end of the story were it to be completed, but precious little else to back it up. There is an overall plot, though, so maybe it can be resuscitated in some shape or form, There may be temporary issues of motivation, but I still find it a bit disheartening that I haven't written anything remotely as good as Lucent, at least in my opinion, which was first posted nearly a year ago.

Love & best wishes to all
