Does anyone know of a cure for writer’s block?
Anna Williamson 
I wish I knew…
Just start writing, doesn’t matter how bad the words are, or how tough it is. Just start writing, and keep writing, and eventually, you’ll push past the block and be back on track.
Thank you, J.C, I didn’t really expect such a helpful response. You’re a sweetie.
What J.C. says I call freewriting. A technique I used several decades ago when I taught freshman composition at George Mason University in Fairfax, Virginia.
Start with something, anything. A Mirror. A moth. Standing in line. Then write, and write . . .
When i get writers block, i think of my favorite things, i listen to music, and i draw pictures of random things, i think of something based on what my life consists of everyday… 🙂
