Started a New Limerick Book Manuscript

I started a new limerick book manuscript. Have written two poems so far. I hope that I will be inspired to write more limericks soon and that this manuscript will continue to evolve into a book. Once done, this will be my second limerick book so far. 

Perhaps I shouldn't just wait for inspiration to hit me but should just open up the Word doc and write. Inspiration can come when you set out to write or when you open up that blank page. Sometimes waiting for inspiration to hit you on its own can mean not writing anything for a long time. And I do not want that to happen.

Haven't Done Creative Writing in a While

I haven't been writing poetry, lyrics, or any other creative writing in a long time. And I don't even know why. It's not just about waiting for inspiration to hit or lines to come to me. It's about sitting down, opening that Word document or taking out that piece of paper, and writing. And I don't do that. Just waiting for inspiration to come may never result in anything new being brought to life and that is not good.

I wanted to start working on my 13th book but it will never come to life if I don't sit down and write. Maybe if I figure out the topic of the book instead of it being a random collection of writings that it will help me to get into it, get things rolling, start writing again.
