Have you ever had a writogasm? The other day I did while writing my final paper for the week. It was for one of my classes in a masters program. I remember writing and getting into it. It seemed that I couldn't type fast enough as the ideas raced through my head. I finally took a break, and discovered I felt a sense of euphoria.
The feeling took me aback because I never felt it before. This last week was a very busy week for me. I ended up writing 3 papers for class and 3 articles, not to mention this blog. That's a personal record. I have never written so much before. I wondered if other writers experience this as well.
I'm sure there are writers who can punch out a couple of long chapters in a novel in the course of a week. I never have, yet. So pardon my inexperience if how much I wrote this week seems like nothing. I'm just glad I was able to do it. It means that my migraines are under control.
Whether much or little is written, I feel that if I'm progressing as a writer then its worth a little celebration. Hence, the writogasm. ;-)
