This Eliminates Writer’s Block Forever!

Putting a Stop to Writer's Block

Putting a Stop to Writer’s Block

Do you ever get “writer’s block”?

You know, that feeling when you sit at the keyboard or with pen and paper and you need to write something, but can’t?

You’re stumped. Clueless. And as the minutes tick by, you become more and more stressed about wasting your time. But there it is. A deadline that won’t go away!

What to do!

Here’s a tip. Just start writing. Anything!

Write complete nonsense. Create lists of anything. Just write words as they come into your head or as you look around the room.

Like real physical exercise to get our body moving, sometimes we just have to start, move a little to get the momentum going. It’s the same with our writing.

Once you begin by cracking open the idea spigot, thoughts suddenly begin to flow out. Slowly at first, but once begun you’ll find it hard to turn off.

I’ve included a simple Writer’s Idea Matrix to help you. Simply mix words from different columns in the matrix to begin generating ideas. You can also use this matrix as a template to create your own industry or topic specific matrix. Feel free to share the pdf matrix file with whomever you like. Post it on Facebook if you think it will help someone you know.

Short and sweet today. I’m looking forward to celebrating the Memorial Day Holiday with friends and family.

This year will be particularly special since I’m now devoting a great deal of time on a book and program to help our 1000’s of war veterans deal with PTSD, post-tramatic stress disorder.

If you know a veteran who might be interested in offering or contributing his or her own unique story to the book or could benefit from having a copy when completed, please put them in touch with me.
