Ways Of Dealing With Writers Block

By Tom Binns

Everyone has their own way of dealing with writers block. Some people will sit around and wait until something will come to them. While other's will find something that will take their minds off of the problem they are facing. No matter who you are, if you write, it will hit you one day or another.

Almost as if your brain isn't communicating with your body somehow. Writing isn't the easiest thing to do in the world, and when that block comes up. Well you might as forget about it for a while. All the good author's have had problems with it before, and they will again.

Many people will tell you that each day you need to write down something. Spend at least fifteen minutes where you sit and write it won't need to make sense. But as long as you do this, writing should always come to you when it's needed.

Sit outside and look around, make up a story about a situation or a car that you see. These are all ways that you may be able to jump start the muse in you. But if you begin to get too frustrated and can't think of a thing, walk away.

Listen to music, read, watch a movie, go out and head to the beach. It won't matter but just get away from sitting and staring as nothing comes to you. It will only frustrate you more than what you already are at this point.

Many writers will have this happen through the years they write. There is nothing wrong with you, and nothing that a doctor will be able to help out with. Instead it is going to be all you who will either find the muse again, or sit around with nothing to do.

In closing, think positive it shouldn't last for that long!
