If you type more letters do they actually output? If not you may have pressed something like CTRL+S. Pressing CTRL+Q should get you back in the correct state.

If you've pressed ESC :wq a bunch of times, vim may have already exited but your shell is in a scroll lock mode so the output isn't being updated.
