Breaking the Block
Ian S. Bott
- What
- writer
- hasn’t
- felt
- the
- desolate
- emptiness
- of
- the
- white
- page,
- mocking,
- and
- remaining
- stubbornly
- blank?
- Summoning
- words
- to
- fill
- that
- page
- can,
- at
- times,
- be
- an
- effortless
- flight
- of
- creativity.
- At
- other
- times,
- it
- feels
- like
- mental
- constipation.Writer’s
- block
- fills
- writers
- with
- dread
- because
- it
- feels
- impassable,
- something
- we
- just
- have
- to
- accept
- and
- wait
- for
- inspiration
- to
- strike.
- But
- we
- needn’t
- be
- passive
- victims
- of
- writer’s
- block.
- We
- can
- strike
- back
- with
- a
- combination
- of
- self-awareness
- and
- a
- suitable
- kit
- of
- tools.
- Breaking
- the
- Block
- provides
- a
- collection
- of
- approaches
- to
- keep
- the
- words flowing.
