How do you deal with writer’s block?

1. Go exercise and bring a small pad. While exercising, ideas tend to come to mind. Capture them on your tablet.

2. Go watch a play. Watching humans in live action does more to us -- if we allow it -- than other forms of stimulation. If a good drama, musical, or comedy doesn't inspire you, there may be more going on than simple writer's block.

3. Switch the time at which you write.

4. Go to a cafe in a town where you know no one. Hang out there for four hours. Don't leave until you have ten pages completed. I once did that in Spain with a yellow legal tablet. The problem was, after being computer centric for so many years, my handwriting had deteriorated to the point of making it difficult to read my own penmanship.(less)
