the Writer's Block is really frustrating, but you'll only get into the worst mood if you try fret and fight it. take it slow and let your thoughts wander. you can still write actually. just make sure not to finalize and submit it. somehow that will give you a feeling of accomplishment. you may need to rewrite a lot of it, but it won't be that difficult anymore because you've written something already.

Well, it can certainly be difficult to deal with writer's block. There are many ways that you can get rid of this writer's block. One good way of doing it is by reading. You can try and read just about anything. It might help you get some kind of inspiration and might help get rid of your writer's block.

Well writers block is something that really is irritating in nature. I really get annoyed when i look at a blank piece of paper and stare at it wondering what to write.
Dealing with writers block is not easy, but u should do your best to dump it.
Try meditating for sometym to get an orientation. Then move down every point that crosses your mind. if its about a journey that you want to write about then imagine what you had seen, all the places etc. Make a summary, rearrange the various thoughts that came across your mind and finally make a draft out of it.
Then take a break, do somethin else and later come back and read it. Things will fill in automatcally.
Try it. I usually do like this and i've got good results. I hope i was of some help.
Happy mylotting.
Regards,
Ajith.

yes!! you are right. you are having a blockage. so the first you will do is to find the root why your having this problem. maybe you need to solve what's bothering you first. after that maybe you will finally have the motivation to write again.
