Hi all

Hi, this is my first ever post. One of my greatest passions is writing. I have had writers block, it lasted a month and basically I couldn't write at all. Sitting at the computer was daunting, however if you ever get writers block I have discovered how to overcome it. It may not work for everyone, but it worked for me. Basically I went on a kind of journey, I started with a place (I chose a church) and I wrote everything I could about the church. The sights, sounds, smells and how I felt. Next I imagined walking inside, I then described everything inside the church and an event. Now, you don't have to choose a church, but you must write freely and don't be judgemental no matter what you come up with. After this exercise I felt much happier and I'd actually written a load of dribble, but it freed the block. In my view, if you have a block, don't try to write a bestseller. Take it slowly and write just a paragraph to a page about one thing. Hope this helps anyone who has writers block. You have to be strong, because it can be overcome, everyone is unique and gifted in their own way. Thanks for reading this. Jen.
