Nothing really. Sometimes I have to be in the mood or it could be that I just don't know what to say or how to say what I want to say.

These are great answers here and above. The one that's most surprising is that some writers feel intimidated by the slick and well-written reviews and won't bother writing as a result, however ALL contributions are appreciated, even simple quick tips. Fascinating responses here. Maybe I should tone mine down, now. Naaaaah! :)

TIME - I find writing things on Lunch to be quite time consuming and since there are so many books i want to read DVD's to see CD's to listen to and pieces to play on the piano I simply lack the time to do more of it.

The primary thing that prevents me from writing reviews is writer's block. I'll watch a movie and thoroughly enjoy it, but when it's time to write up a review, I'll go completely blank. It is during this time that I'll start posting more and more quick tips. Quick tips provide me with the opportunity to give my opinion on a subject without digging too deep. I have no problem writing them.

I have so much that I want to share with everyone that I start reviewing and then, save for later. Then, I try to go back and finish. If I just want to share my thoughts quickly, then I'll write a quick tip and sometimes it ends up being as long as a review LOL.

A lack of time, a lack of funds, a lack of creative energy, and being asked about when I'll be posting something new. The question is, what would get me to post more... unfortunately I'm not entirely sure. LOL!

It's not part of my routine yet. Perhaps I can find a regular time to check in with Lunch.com.

I agree that it takes time to read and review and then write down your thoughts. Some brought up a point that they somehow feel they cannot meet the same standard because of the professional presentation of some reviews. Wow! I never thought of that! Personally, I would not compare myself to people who have been writing reviews for years. I would really just rather read what they thought of a book or movie without regard to presentation. We're not pro writers getting paid and praised. We're just people who enjoy reading and watching movies (or whatever). So please, write! Any contribution is welcome.
