Style Envy

I don’t know why but it was uncommonly difficult for me to write today. I have ideas, I’m working on a very good section where I know exactly what to say, but the language was tripping me up majorly. I had to use the dictionary all the time.

Maybe it’s because I’m reading Elizabeth von Arnim whose style I admire, and it’s making me conscious of the poverty of my own writing compared to hers. I still did my 1,200 words but it took forever and madd my brain boil.
