How To Get Over Writer’s Block?

Some Methods That Work For Me

The most common question I get asked is,

‘How to get over writer’s block?’

So here’s my two pence.

These are some things that generally work for me. I do not claim to be an expert, but I do have some experience in being a writer. So these are just some methods I have devised over the years.

1. Don’t write anything for the time being.

Usually, when you aren’t able to write, it’s your brain asking you to take a break, so take it.

2. Engage in a creative activity.

I go to reading because that’s my go-to comfort activity. But painting, cooking, taking a walk in the park, etc, all work well.

3. Talk to someone.

Writing is a cathartic experience for most writers. However, nothing can be better than a heart-to-heart conversation. Tell your loved ones about your newest experiences, especially those experiences that brought you happiness.
