It's on the Wyrdsmith's blog, and it links to Robin Hobb's blog.

Here's the link to the post:

If pressed, I'd have to agree with the commentors that blogging is not a problem for disciplined writers. I think creative writing comes from a different place than the more technical writing of a blog post. But I can see the allure of telling myself that if I make a post to my blog "at least I'm writing something today."

I hope you're being pleasingly productive, Rick.
