I've been working on the same story for over a year, I don't know what you're talking about ;)
Writing inspiration/drive is (IMHO) another matter because it requires a different kind of energy: nothing I can put into words but that's how it looks.
Vidding seems to me more like completing a puzzle: you have all the pieces, they are there, scattered on your table and you need "only" to assemble them in the order required by your inspiration/mood/whatever.
For writing the pieces are not there, not physically: you have to root for them inside your brain and your soul, and sometimes the process is a difficult one, sometimes it's even painful. And even when you have finally found the perfect piece, you have to shape it.

As for the icon, I'm a cartoonish mood, yes! ;-)
