Tips to combat writer's block
Writer Block is the condition of being unable to think of what to write or how to proceed with writing. My situation leans towards how to proceed seventy percent of the time. When these trials and tribulations strike and spin into tornado speed screaming, throwing those sparks of desire, leaving the memory of excitement etched in one’s mind, without having a physical copy, these are ashes of time. What one fails to remember, there is a thing called re-birth.
With all that said and done, I have never found a way to light that fire until itself has decided to ignite, forcing me to etch its heart into a desirable book. However, I have collected a list from research to hopefully help those authors in need of an antidote of sorts. The good thing is these types of remedies will not cause dry mouth, headaches, diarrhea, kidney failure and so one. If one does not work, try another, and if all else fails…well, you may just have to play the waiting game as I.
Remedies
Buy a Stephen King costume and pick up a dog at the pound, then make a YouTube video.
Pretend to be Alice in Wonderland, go to Starbucks and make magical friends.
Watch a favorite classic, The Exorcist.
Go to the Olive Garden for lunch, apply a blindfold before ordering.
The imagination is awesome, all of these things take the time to create. If you want the fire, wait for the spark then watch it flame.
