I purchased this house about two years ago - hmm, so far, no plans to vacate, lol.<br /><br />Funny how doing mundane, physical tasks can stimulate the creative juices.

But it does feel good to lighten the load a little. By the time you get back to your WIP, you'll be able to knock it out after all this downtime you've spent with the characters.

The more I am able to see large empty spaces on my shelves and cupboards, it seems there's more room to just breathe and feel the flow of creative energy. The trick is to not go shopping, LOL.

I agree with some of the other commenters, working on writing is still working on writing. When you are brainstorming in your head you are still getting work done, working through plot holes and scenes. I get a lot of issues worked out while driving and walking.

We went through something similar in 2006 when we sold/gave away/tossed away our stuff and moved onto our sailboat, LA VITA. It takes a lot of courage to reduce your Christmas ornaments collection so they will fit in a shoe box. It can be done. You'll find your new normal and thrive in ways you never thought possible.

When we moved a year ago, we purged almost a whole Salvation Army truck load of stuff. It felt wonderful to be giving to people who were in need and knowing that things (like my rocking chair from when my daughter was born) might be loved and used by some other mother. Sharon K.
