Yes. I used to find writing a lot more difficult than I do now. There are still times when I feel stuck - but that, I think, is because I don't yet know enough about the story. It doesn't do, I find, to force it - if you do, you will most assuredly have to rewrite. But, if you go on to another scene and write that, you may be able to go back and tackle the scene that you were stuck in. At least, it sometimes helps me.
I'm inclined to take what Mr. Smith says with a pinch of salt, except for two things: you do need to trust the process, and the creative mind. And everyone is different, and will have a somewhat different process. Oh, and a third thing. Writing should be fun!
That's what I gained from the site. I don't agree with everything else there, but I do agree strongly with those three ideas.
