Ah, I remember writers block. I used to suffer from it a long time ago. Today I write dozens of articles a week, perhaps five hundred a year. Earlier in my life, I would go months and months without writing a word. Why? Writers block. But I suffer no longer. The CausesWhat causes writers block? In my case, Ive found a few causes.The idiots of the world - Occasionally Ill write something and get a negative comment. In the past when I was in my twenties (seems like a different lifetime now) this would stop me cold. Id get a comment like "this isnt that great" or "you should change your article thusly..." and bam, I would stop writing for weeks or months.Some other failure in life - Ive found that when I was failing somewhere else in life I would stop writing. You know, hard times at work, lost love, that kind of thing. When life seemed to hit me particularly hard, I would find that I didnt feel like writing at all.Something I didnt understand - Sometimes I would want to write an article but I would find myself stopped cold. Later, I would often discover that I didnt understand something, some critical piece of information. Once I filled in that gap, I started writing again.Illness - Something about throwing up just makes it difficult to write ...Too much introversion - Ive found that I have to extrovert occasionally in order to be able to introvert enough to write. Does that make sense? On those occasions where I could not get out, my writing suffered.Not writing something of interest - Occasionally, Ive found I am attempting to write an article about a subject which is of no interest at all. It makes it really difficult to write something when you dont care a hoot for it. The SolutionsWhat are the solutions?Write something every single day - I have taken a few writing classes, and one common denominator (and perhaps the only meaningful information from any of them) was so simple as to defy imagination. Simply write something every single day.I write one article, completely polished and ready for publication, every single day, seven days a week, 365 days a year. Sometimes I write two or three articles in a day.It really doesnt matter what I write, although I usually write about the internet or computers. But occasionally I write other things, including pages for my autobiography or even a love letter to the wife.Put aside time to write - I have set aside "writing time", two hours every single night, in which I isolate myself in my office at home and write my heart out. My wife respects my introversion during this time as it allows me to do one of the things that I love the most: communicate ideas in written form.Fill in any missing blanks - If I find that I am having trouble explaining something in writing or the words just dont flow, I look around and see if there is something about it that I do not fully understand. That often works.Ignore the idiots of the world - There sure seem to be a lot of jerks sometimes. However, I dont need to allow some babbling idiots ruin my writing. Just because someone does not like something does not mean anything except they didnt like it...I do not ask for criticism - I never ask anyone to criticize my works, ever. I do not ask for site reviews of my websites, I dont submit my works for review. Why not? I am not interested in other peoples silly opinions about my works. I know I am a good writer, a excellent webmaster and a great manager. I dont need anyone to tell me how good I am, and I certainly dont need anyone to point out my faults.Changing styles - If I have trouble starting a piece and Im sure I understand what Im writing about, I often change the style. I usually write in a very conversational tone, which seems to communicate well to people. However, I will occasionally change to humorous or very serious or whatever. Ive found these changes tend to blow away writers block like dynamite. ConclusionsNo matter what the cause, writers block is something that can be handled and overcome. Its actually not complicated at all. In fact, the best way to deal with the syndrome is the simplest - just start writing and keep writing, no matter what happens. Write your heart out and before long you will be writing like crazy.
