Dear Dreamstretch.com,

I have been writing creative stories for many years without any problems. However, over the last few months I have been struggling to find new ideas. The words no longer seem to flow like they used to. What should I do?

Yours confused,

Becky Albright.

Dear confused,

Writer's block plagues even the best of authors and is not easily explained. In your case though, this is probably a good thing. If you have been writing for so long, then how come we've never heard of you? We would guess that it is because you aren't any good. Perhaps you should find a new vocation like gardening or something.

Dear Dreamstretch.com,

I am a musician who has recently broken his hand in a car accident and may never play guitar again. I am at a loss as to what to do with my life now. Can you help?

Yours injured,

Derek Blower.

Dear injured,

We are sorry to hear of your predicament. Clearly it is fate telling you that you were destined for other things. You were probably terrible anyway.
