Experiencing a Writer's Block

I've been experiencing a huge writer's block ever since I finished writing and editing "Unleash the Marketing & Publishing Power of RSS".

The worst part is that writing is no longer fun, and almost every other sentence is a struggle. But that's nothing new to me; it happens every time I finish something big, putting my mind in to it.

Just the other day, I tried writing an article on RSS for a Slovenian magazine to which I usually contribute about 2 articles per month. Just didn't work out. Couldn't make it readable.

I guess that every book author should be given a two month writing vacation after completing his book:)

Just one problem with that: all the work really starts only after the e-book is written, and usually involves even more writing.

Yeah, it would be nice to have someone to actually market the book and deal with all of the post-writing activities, such as preparing articles, doing interviews, doing newsmastering, making connections and so on.

Don't get me wrong, I love marketing. But in this case, especially considering the writer's block, I wouldn't mind someone else doing it based on my plans:)
