How do you deal with writer’s block?

Rather than seeing the vacant place as a threat to my ongoing creativity, I become mindful in the empty space and sit with it. I continue with my daily life and provide opportunities for all of my senses to be ignited. A hot bubble bath, a walk along the beach on a windy brisk day, filling the house with loud pumping rock music, sitting in the botanical gardens and eating a liquorice ice-cream, or a jog around a football oval. I accept responsibility for the emptiness, and instigate one of the long list of strategies, I have developed especially for this occasion. It never fails to surprise me, that my most creative ideas for plot and characters are often born in one of these moments, like water springing from a dry well. I try not to panic if a stubborn interval presents itself but remain in the present, and refuse to accept the victim mentality that beckons. Writing is such an individual journey, that an author must create a war plan that caters to the idiosyncratic patterns of their own mind, to fight the ‘blank’ warrior. On the rare occasions when I face the demon, sometimes I just have to ‘call it out’ and not let the silence win.

What do you do when your battery is running flat?

What happens when there are so many balls in the air and you feel as though the occupation listed on your passport is: professional juggler?

Do you juggle faster, do you miss a ball on the way down or do you stop and drop all your balls?

While there are times in life when this happens, what if your day to day existence becomes this never ending prioritising, hyperventilating and drinking cold coffee
