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?

4: She writer's balked because the movie is that awful.
3: Do I have to finish it?

Singular t the word Balkings, a Balking is a mix between a Scandinavian/Nordic Viking and a Slavic/Balkan person. The indigenous powerful genetics of their species, make the most impeccable combination of human warriors. If so a Viking breed with a Slavic/Balkan, will create the powerful Balking. In the 9th century, there are tales from the Vikings voyages in the sagas of Heimskringla, where the Vikings went to the Roman Empire. They instantly got attracted to their physical abilities and features, where they created the human race of Balkings. A new empire were forged, by the blood of warriors. They are described as tall, white and mystically powerful beings.
