What Is The Best Way To Get Over "Writers Block"?!?

Answer 1

Writer's block doesn't truly exist. It's just an excuse invented to avoid writing.

Write something, anything. Even if it's garbage. You can't edit a blank page.

If you're frustrated, take a break. Think about the story - that's still writing because most of writing is the formation of the story in our minds. If you still feel you can't move on, skip ahead and write a completely different scene of the book or story.

If all else fails, set that story aside and work on something else. Stephen King sets aside his rough drafts for up to six months before coming back to them to fine-tune them.

Writer's block is just the mind's excuse to avoid working (writing.)

Good luck.

Answer 2

Put down the pen and read at least two really great classics before even thinking about your manuscript. If you go back to it and are still blocked, write anything. Brainstorm ideas on paper - as silly as they sound. Then write several short stories from those ideas and most likely one will spark you again. A lot of people say when you become blocked on a book, it means you have taken a wrong turn and if you are boring yourself you will bore your readers. There is a lot of merit to that. Try taking a different approach! Pax - C.

Answer 3

Use it as an opportunity to explore another facet of your story. Start writing about what the sidekick does when not around the lead. This is a good way to develop a subplot.
