    When the words won't come

    Hi Bob.  Do you ever find you have "songwriter's block," and if so, how do you deal with that?  (And if not, how do you manage that?!)

    uhhh, i keep lots of books spanning years that i write ideas or lyrics or just one-liners in. its easy to go back and dredge something up. if i try to write for 2 hours and nothing comes i keep at it and something appears at 1hour 59 minutes. if not, i pick up another instrument that is tuned differently and that i don't know how to play and somethng usally comes out. maybe read some poetry. i also get away from writing for a month at a time. that way when i sit down the ideas just pur out - no block at all.
