WRITER'S BLOCK: A WRITER'S CURSE by Bam17(f): 1:26pm On Apr 20 |
Writers, please how do you deal with writer's block? Especially the one that keeps coming? I need help. I keep having recurring situations that are messing with my mind. I also get uneasy and tired of writing a particular story. This has always been a problem for me. Is there a solution? Oh, and I get anxiety, too |

Simple. Write in splits of not more than 400 words. Take mental breaks i.e when you have blocks take a walk or watch a film 1 Like |

ProjectsCityNG:The writing in splits helps? |

Bam17: Yes na. Otherwise Migraine would kill you. At times I write 400-500 words, walk away come back hours. It's the brain telling you it is over stressed but your lack of sleep. Your brain is telling you that you are over worked and should go easy |

ProjectsCityNG: . Oh, I see. But it keeps happening. For example, I often lack motivation to write. Sometimes it makes me sad. Not that the idea isn't there; I just feel so hesitant to write |

Bam17: That stage is excessive fatigue and burn out. In such cases, you should go off writing for extensive period and have plenty of sleep. See when such happens and you feel that reluctance after rest, you need to do it like you are learning afresh and find that initial motivation like telling yourself it pays the bills. You will be broke without working etc. to psyche yourself up 1 Like 1 Share |

Bam17: When the financial rewards is far, the motivation to write is hard to find. You have to fight to find the motivation one way or the other ! 1 Like 1 Share |

ProjectsCityNG:So, all I need to do is find what motivates me...? That's a nice one. I think money should Maybe if I get serious about monetizing my work, I will be able to write without losing the zeal. |
