How do you get past writer's block

First, I'd like to recommend a book that's helped me over and over again -- Outwitting Writer's Block and Other Problems of the Pen by Jenna Glatzer. I love that book. Another way I get through writer's block is by writing something completely different to get the juices flowing again: a journal entry or two, a short story, an article or anything else that keeps the pen moving.

Usually with a thesis, you have to have an outline. I would treat each chapter of your thesis like its own story. For example, let's say your thesis is on why cats eat so much. The first part focuses on eating. You can look at that as a complete subject: how much they eat compared with other animals, etc. Then your next part is on the psychology of why cats eat. You treat this as a completely new story. They eat more when they have new food, when they are in different circumstances. Finally I would say that if you truly feel like you don't have enough to say about your thesis topic, then maybe you need to do more research about your subject. Hope any of this helps. Good luck with your writing.
