Social media, SEO, marketing and writingHow Do Writers Overcome Writer’s Block?
Writer/designer/producer Larry Kay says: “I can’t really afford writer’s block. There is nothing like a good swift deadline to kick in the creativity! I think writer’s block often occurs when you don’t trust your ideas. Creativity is like a muscle, the more you use it, the stronger it gets. I don’t subscribe to the notion that every writer has a finite amount of stuff to say and uses it up. But, on the other hand, I know that I, like most writers, must be careful not to burn out. I definitely have some days that are surprisingly productive, while other days I have to trudge through on technique. When I get a little rest between projects or drafts, I tend to start a little fresher which makes me feel more free and spontaneous with my creativity. Ideas generate more rapidly and I throw out a lot of bad material on my way to finding the good stuff.”
