Writing is always fun, except for when it's not. Laughter is the best medicine, except for when it's not. Absolutes always have this format. It's another way of saying that there are no absolutes.
I came up with that little phrase as a joke. Every now and then it gets a laugh. But really, it's a way to see the world around us. Life is always great, except for when it's not. No matter how wonderful things may be, sometimes they will suck. What are you going to do about it?
What will you do when writing isn't fun? What will you do when your ideas are stale? What will you do when your storytelling falters?
As usual, these are questions with no universal answers. Look inside yourself for them. What would you do? Try harder? Take a break? Seek help? Give up completely?
Find out those answers. When you reach those exceptions to the rules, you will be glad you prepared.
