First I have to Say that Writer’s Block is the time you are building your story at the back of your mind, and that is considered as part of writing, so we can say that Writer’s Block is a myth, but since there’s a lot of people don’t have the idea how to deal with the feeling of the inability to write at a specific moment

With the Rising number of Writers and Writer’s platform, this industry is attracting quietly everyone, so per example on Medium you can find professionals, amateurs, poets and storytellers, you can find articles nearly about everything, and even journals and diaries from normal people sharing their human experience to the number one trending writers on all platforms, if that means anything, it means that everyone has something to say.

If anyone has something to say, then where this Writer’s Block is coming from ?!

As i said at the beginning since this industry is attracting everyone, from writers to artists to business professionals, the competition standards has a new higher Levels, Writing nowadays should be informative, twisting, with artistic touch and catchy, and of course something is not widely addressed, even writers who’s trained not to stuck on the “Writer’s Block” are having special difficulties with other professional competitors and people who run big businesses and writes about it,

Many reasons for Writer’s Block once you know the reason, the solution comes right into your mind.

When you need more research, as I said professional writers should read more and gather lots of additional views and resources to cope with other business professionals who’s writing on the topics they are very comfortable with.

When you don’t know where your story is going, This one is so common among novel writers, and it’s OK not to have all the answers all at once in your head, on this stage you have to give your self sometime to re-think about your story on a wider scale and re-read your last chapter and don’t enforce your self to write stupid pages you won’t use and you know that you are going to delete later when the inspiration hits you again, just relax and wait for your inner voice while your story is being built by itself at the back of your mind.

Two Practical Steps Not to Hit the Writer’s Block Again:

  1. Take A Shower and Try Again
  2. Try to Write Few lines just before you sleep, you should feel sleepy so use a voice note and come back to it the next day

it may seem simple two steps but this is so vital and working 1 million per cent.

Try this steps if it helped you, thank me with a follow and a share and of course subscribe to my newsletter, because I’m not getting paid from medium due to geographical issues ( i live in another planet — the middle east)
