HOW TO OVERCOME WRITER'S BLOCK

Source: jamesaltucher.com

Writer's block is the inability of a writer to produce a creative work of his own. You feel the urge to write, but can't fathom what to write.. Some other times, you start well, but at a point, the next point seem blank.

You're not alone.

Except you are not a creative writer, the probability of experiencing writer's block is about 1 in every 6 writings(articles). Some more pronounced than the others..

These are 3 things that help me when i have writer's block

1. Leave the work and go rest

I do this with a bottle of chilled coke with me. I literally forget the work and think or better put, fantasize about some other things ( most times, socks or bowties). Writer's block can be a result of stress or excessive work. Rest will definately help.

1. Take a break and read other people's works.

   Usually, two to four articles and i'm up and writing. attimes i post anyone i find helpful on social media. Thanks to @greenrun, now i know that's plagiarism. Posting is; not reading. so get your eyes to work.

1. Read what you've written out to yourself.

   This usually works when you get stuck inbetween. Re-reading can give you another perspective to what to continue with.
