There are two kinds of problems writers face:
1) Word-constipation: also known as a writer's block.
2) Word-diarrhea: you have so many ideas in your head and words just want to come out uncontrollably.

I hardly ever face the word-constipation but I often suffer from word-diarrhea. Then the cure is simple: write and get feedback to what you have written.(less)

Quotes by Tomi Astikainen  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“One can be lonely irrespective of place, if there is no one with familiar face.
One can grow tired of being on the move, if there’s no purpose and nothing to prove.
But there’s always a place for a nomad like me; new friends to be made, adventures to see.
Let go of the plans, change tactics and hence; Whatever might happen turns out to make sense.”
Tomi Astikainen, The Sunhitcher

“The whole idea of systematically choosing to extend your hospitality to total
strangers is just revolutionary. It breaks the boundaries and limitations set by our culture
and enforced by our upbringing. At least my dad was full of great advice: “Do not trust
strangers!,” “Never ask for help from anyone!,” “Be independent!” and so on. The list of
warnings I have heard is endless. Luckily, I chose to do just the opposite.”
Tomi Astikainen, Rich Without Money
