There's not one perfect ideal way to be a writer, and the idea that someone's not a real writer if they're not constantly inspired or constantly writing is really discouraging for people who are struggling with their writing, whether it's the difficulties of the actual act of writing or the difficulties of being published or something else. People get writer's block. People lose their inspiration. People get discouraged for what others see as 'silly' reasons. That doesn't mean they aren't writers.
