Cure For Writer's Block, Anyone?
I know it doesn't seem it since I've posted stories on this LJ in the past few days but, in all honesty, Come Hell or High Water chapter three has been all typed up for over a month now and, like I said, the prologue has been on my hard drive for about two months. Right now, I'm sitting on chapter thirteen for Come Hell or High Water and ... I have nothing.
Nada.
Zilch.
Fuck all, frankly.
Yep, that's right. I have writer's block. I've sat down every day this week and last and the week before that to write and I think in that time I have managed to type oh say, seven paragraphs. Three weeks and seven paragraphs. I am not very happy with myself.
So, with this in mind, I thought I would appeal to all the writer's on my flist -- the people who are writers now, or who used to be, it doesn't matter. The ability to write never leaves you, you just get tired of the bloody thing. But every writer has suffered from writer's block at one point. How have you got over it? What specific thing do you do to make this disease that irks me so leave you alone? Because I swear if I can't overcome this soon I will cry. Writing is my life; both fanfic and original. And I despise being struck down by writer's block because that's how my last story got abandoned and ... I really don't want to do that. So, please, writers ... do you have a cure for writer's block?
Nada.
Zilch.
