Writer’s block: an inability to think, combined with a deep sense of guilt, that no amount of caffein seems to be able to take away.
But, I’m trying to look on the positive side:
- I’m learning patience, especially with myself.
- Challenges produce perseverance and character.
Meanwhile, all I have to write is AHHHHHHHHH!
No – actually – here are some strategies I’m about to try out:
- Find coffee
- Pray
- Find more coffee
- Procrastinate with Netflix
- Go for a run
- Stop procrastinating
- Coffee, again
- Pray, again
- Just write something (even though you’e probably delete most of it tomorrow)
No, seriously though: this is what I’m going to do: find one detail or scene that I really like so far and write three more sentences about that. I just ant to be able to write three sentences today…is that too much to ask for????
Time to drink coffee, pray and write those three sentences.
🙂 Would it help if you pretended you had a deadline for a paper at Swarthmore tomorrow?
