How do YOU experience Writers Cramp? Write about it.
I wanted to write a book about exercise:
I ran, I walked, I jogged, I swam;
I cramped!
I limped, I tripped, I stumbled, and nearly drowned.

I wanted to submit an article on cleaning:
I scrubbed, I mopped, I disinfected;
I cramped!
I bleached my favorite dark shirt and choked on cleaning fumes.

I wanted to post the most movie reviews possible in a week:
I viewed, I laughed, I cried, I felt cinematographic emotion;
I cramped!
I ran out of Visine, I got vision headaches, and I nearly went blind.

I wanted to publish my handwritten memoirs:
I jotted, I inked, I penciled, I scribbled and scribed;
I cramped!
I massaged, I heated, I flexed, and I waited for the feeling to pass.

I decided to type a fiction book at my own leisure:
I sat, I pondered, I typed vignettes, I rested, I spoke with my muse, I waited for my muse to respond, I procrastinated;
....no cramps.
I still type to this day and earnestly I say: Fiction is the only way.

Merriam-Webster dictionary defines writer's cramp as "pain in your hand or fingers that you get when you have been writing with a pen or pencil for a long time."
Sometimes I feel my writer's cramp is more in my brain!*Laugh*
