Ever feel frustrated and unable to continue writing? Ever stared at a blank screen and wondered where to go from here? Writer’s Block is more common than you think–and nothing to get discouraged about.
Here are 10 tips to rouse you from the blankness of writer’s block and get you steaming ahead with your story or novel.
Tell yourself your brain is urging you to edit something today, not write. Then go to it!
Open up your favorite novel, any page will do, and begin reading.
Try physical activity. Do some housework, water the garden, dig a hole.
Move away from the keyboard and monitor, and go for a walk. Plot ideas may start just flowing.
Talk about your story with someone who is familiar with it. They may not have the answers, but who knows, perhaps they’ll ask the right questions.
Think about your characters, what they’re doing and how they’re feeling. What would you expect them to do in that situation? Write about it.
Listen to music that inspires you.
Jog, exercise, work out.
Write whatever comes to your mind, no holds barred. Just ramble on and see if an idea doesn’t spring forth.
Read news headlines, see if you can find any plot ideas in them.
