In other, more personal news: I can't write. I'm trying, but it's not coming. I think the pressure is getting to me, I mean, I signed up for things and now I'm going 'omg, I can't!' Also, it's like that writing part of my brain is not working at all. I've been making graphics and textures and playing around in my editing program, and thinking in COLORS and LINES instead of in words, which makes writing difficult.

Does anyone have any advice for me to help me get out of this rut? :(

I have nothing very concrete. Either wait for it to pass (which is what I generally do, since my blocks usually only last for a few days), or make yourself write for a given time each day and do not let yourself delete what you write. You can go back and edit later.
