How to defeat writers block!

Writers block is a common "disease" among the human population. It plagues us from when we start writing, when we go to school, and sometimes when we are at work. Unless your natural at writing, it is eventually going to happen one way or another!

Instructions

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

• pen/pencil
• Paper
• Friends/people in general
• Lots of brain power

1. First brainstorm on paper about something you want to write, even if it comes out as nonsense! The best part of being a writer is think that you can write about anything you want, that your choices are infinite! Choose something that may make you want to build your own world, or maybe perhaps help someone, or just make plain sense!
2. Still can't come up with an idea of what to write about? Talk to friends/family, even someone you don't know! There is bound to be a subject that intrigues you that makes you want to learn or write about it.
3. Many of us get stuck in the middle of writing. It is a time when most of us get frustrated. Take a 10-20 min break to let your brain collect itself from all the tiresome writing. Have someone else edit the paper while your at it! Getting some feedback from someone may help you get right back on track!
4. For some of us who can't organize so much using or left brain or the "more logical" part of our brain, draw a picture. there is a saying that one picture may say a 1000 words. Get a perspective on what your writing through color, the thought of something in the picture, maybe even the emotion the visual gives you.

Tips & Warnings

• Always, Always, ALWAYS, have someone else help you edit! No one is perfect, but it usually helps!
• Caution: Don't get used to taking to many breaks at one time! You might get lazy from writing, or rather yet get discouraged from feeling like you can't do it at all. Just find something that will motivate you, whether it be a though that you have, or an issue that you see!
