Sunny, What is the best way to chat up an advice columist,without comming on too strong? Maybe ask for some advice...it's what they do right? And people open up easier when they're talking about what they know best. Ok..I'm a singer/songwriter who has been in a slump for about 8 months now.Inspiration has been at a stand still.Mabey some thoughts on how to get the inspiration back out and into song?

I hit a writer's block a while ago as well. I ended up picking up a hobby that I hadn't really thought about before. Doing something a lot different than your norm should inspire you. If not...read cereal boxes. They're interesting...

So you are a writer too....what do you write?

See! Seek and ye shall find! (Or something like that) I write short stories or blurbs. I dunno what you'd call them. http://mingle2.com/topic/show/229706 That's my last one. I think a hobby that's out of the ordinary is a good inspiration. Try some things you've never tried before. Whether it's skateboarding or zucchini! New inspires.

Life has been turned upside down a few times. But I'm hanging in.

Well, my case is special. It's my own fault for the upside down part.

Is there any way for you to right the situation? There is usually some sort of hope
