I hate it when I get writer's block. When I do, I usually have to take a step back from the computer. I usually go and do something else for a few minutes, like play with my daughter if she is awake (as I tend to write when she is in bed) or I put my headphones on for a few minutes. A break, personally, does me good.

You said it! Writer's block it is. I get great ideas and when I try to write them down..... I cannot seem to think at all. I can write consistently only when someone gives me a deadline.... It is so tough to motivate myself to write on my own!

I'm in the same boat! I wanted to sign up for this writing website www.suite101.com but I cant think of anything to write about to submit with my application. If you ever break your block let me know how you did it, I need that advice!

writers block is a tough thing to handle some times and the first key is not to be so hard on yourself or beat yourself up because of it. what you need to do is some free writing just about any subject that you can come up with like what you like about summer - something like that.

I get writer's block from time to time, although I don't write as much as an average person does. If you get writer's block I suggest going to your favorite search engine and typing in "writing challenges and generators" to help you find your inspiration. Go to your favorite search engine and type in "seventh sanctum" they have many generators that will help you find your muse again!

oh i get writer's block a lot! sometimes after a whole day at work, i couldn't think of anything to write. i think it has something to do with stress i seem to be extremely stressed lately.

i think that there always a period when a writer will have a writer's block. I've sure been in that situation! It does make what you say donbukriv. Stress can be one way of explaining writer's block.
