Writer's Block sucks :\

He'd need to set his story in the past. Or in the distant future. How could he tell a 2020 love story of a couple wearing masks? Home alone, staring at screens? Storytelling required contact. For the next while, this would be the writer's dilemma.

1) A period of time where a writer has no inspiration, thought-process, or even the faintest of ideas as to how to start or continue their current work.
2) Hell on earth.
2) Hell on earth.
1. I have writer's block. Kill me now.
2. I have writer's block– please just transform me into Icarus so I can fly towards the sun and burn myself alive.

Similar to writer's block, a writer is mentally incapacitated from writing. However, the incapacitation stems from lack of willpower or lack of interest/enthusiasm in the actual project, rather than a lack of imagination or creativity. Is often paired with, though not necessarily a part of, procrastination. Can be used as a verb (i.e., writer's balking, writer's balked).
1: Hey, did you start that essay that 3 assigned you?
2: No. Writer's balk. It's a shitty subject to talk about. I don't like writing about it.
3: What's keeping 5 from finishing the review?
4: She writer's balked because the movie is that awful.
3: Do I have to finish it?
4: Yeah.
2: No. Writer's balk. It's a shitty subject to talk about. I don't like writing about it.

Similar to Writer's Block, Writer's Laziness is when you can't write, but for a different reason. You know exactly what to write, but are just too lazy to type anything up. Currently, no exact cures have been found. It is commonly associated with procrastination and may be remedied by an impending deadline, but data is too scattered to make a direct correlation.
"When is the next chapter of your book coming out?" "I know what to do, but I have Writer's Laziness."
