sudden uninterested on writing..

I'm in the same sort of place in terms of motivating myself to write. The thing that I do when I get stuck and don't know what happens next is just to throw words on paper. It doesn't matter whether or not they are even relevant. They can be deleted later. Just keep writing until you get past the block.

i have many times. i usually walk away, clear my head and not think about it for a while. then it seems to come back stronger then ever. dont try to force anything though you will just wind up frustrating yourself. trust me

I think anymore this happens to a lot of us. From time to time you really want to write and it is exciting and new and tons of ideas and thoughts flow thru your head and it is fun until one day the thoughts Stop and leave you hanging and then you may not want to write as well. I am sure if you were to ask many published authors even some of the Big named ones, they all have had times where they go thru this as it is natural. Might just be time to take a little break and wait for a time when the thoughts start flowing again more as well.

take a bit of a break from writing and dont put so much pressure on yourself. i took a break from writing and started doing art.

I also have a passion in writing, well, mostly my two cents worth.:) There were times that I'd really love to write but there was just nothing for me to write. If there was, they weren't that good enough to be shared. Sometimes this could get really frustrating especially when I am earning a little for my articles.:( However, I'm not forcing myself to come up with anything. I'm just trying to relax because the more I force my brain to concoct a topic for me, the more it is rendering me nothing. So, relax. Leave it there for awhile. Do not force it. There could be several factors why we don't seem to have the motivation to write anymore. It could be physical stress like from doing all the household chores, emotional stress like a fight with a partner, mental stress like you've been forcing yourself too much to think of a good topic. Give it a break. GOOD TOPIC WILL SOON COME TO YOU NATURALLY.:)

i did experienced something like that. when an idea hits me, i try to nake note of the plot or key words so that i can write them when i'm not busy anymore. in the case that i would forget them completely i'll just let go of the thought if i really couldn't remember it any more and quietly think of another then hope that previous idea will come to me again. i've also experienced getting stuck in the process. i'd also stop and rest for a while or continue on with another idea. usually when i start something what actually comes to mind is the middle part or the ending of a story, sometimes i write that first or go straight to those parts then just connect them with the other parts. maybe you can go back to that feeling or that situation where you were able to have that interest and maybe you'll be able to think of something again. ^_^

I always run low on excitement for my writing, even though I love it. Then there are times when I get on a roll and can't stop writing! What I do when I am not as inspired, I look for pictures on the internet that I can write a short story on. I got a really good short story out of a simple photo I found that my instructor loved--so it's a good thing to do. It takes your mind off any projects you have going on at the time that are irritating you.

This happened to me. It started a couple of months ago. I just don't seem to feel motivated to write at all. But it's been cured. I'm starting to write again. And I tried to analyze what triggered the block. And this is what I came up with : 1 Bored with writing the same topic 2 Pressure to write the best article 3 Personal problems So what I did was to read some books about writing better articles and a few of the books which I've read do motivate me to write. So now when I have a writer's block, I would go back to these books and try to motivate myself to write. It's true what people say. Writers have to be readers too. That's the only way we can motivate ourselves and remind us of the passion to write.

hello inday_lorna! 'm going through what you've experienced three years ago that's why 'm responding to your three year old discussion!

I guess I'm fortunate in that I rarely suffer from writers block of any sort. My biggest issue is not being able to write enough to get the writing thoughts and ideas and stories and poems out of my head. My best advice is to write every day, no matter if you just sit down and freewrite your thoughts as you think them, no matter how serious or inane. I also belong to many writing groups that offer writing prompts on a regular basis and this means I always have plenty of topics of interest to write about. And in my case, never enough time to write them all!

Hi friend,too much of writing activity will give this kind of feelings. You must take a little break for your writing activities and start it after you are interested with it. There is nothing wrong in taking a break and you are deserved for it. Now a days i don't have time for writing, so i stopped my article writing activities and promoting my previous articles to increase the page views
