How do you deal with writer’s block?

Basically, I place any tendency for procrastination to one side and just write. Even if I feel blocked, I'm confident the words will come; they might not be the specific words I want, but I have faith that they will come; and, at the end of the day, that's important, because words are the essential tools for all writers - without them the page will remain forever blank.

So just do it and see what happens. You have absolutely nothing to lose and you may (and probably will) surprise yourself.(less)

Ultimately, for me, writing is about communicating with my fellow human beings. All of us, in our own ways, want to be heard, so I regard the process of writing as a fairly basic (and, indeed, compelling) need.

And did I say it was fun?(less)
