From Edie: Need motivation to write today? Here are 18 funny, honest reasons to put words on the page—even if you feel stressed, stuck, tired, or distracted. A practical pep talk for writers in every season.

Writers are wildly creative people.
Not just in what we come up with to write about. But we’re super creative in thinking up reasons NOT to write.
I don’t know about you, but I’m a master at justifying procrastination. I can spin fear into logic. Most of all I can turn distraction into a full-time job. And when I’m really desperate, I can convince myself I’m being responsible by avoiding the very thing I’m called to do.
But today, I’m flipping the script.
Because the truth is?
Some of our best reasons not to write… are actually the best reasons to write.
So here you go.
