As a poet and someone who's only ever once had writer's block, back when I listened to a professor, I can tell you that writer's block is a myth. It is a simple problem, that should, however, not be underestimated. Instead, it is best to solved it right away. I will tell you how. The only advice in the regard I can give you is that which applies to every writer and master of every other art: You must allow yourself to write without interference from your head. There are no tips or strategies here. Rather, it is the contrary. You must be free from plots, approaches, and advice; and allow your words to come out freely. Remove your head as the obstacle to your writing. What does this mean? That one cannot reason oneself out of compulsive reasoning (which is what writer's block is: too much thinking to the point where you're paralyzed). The only way is to create a pause - a pause from reasoning and thinking, in which you write before you think and continue only to write. Trust me, you do not need to think in order to write, you already know what to write, just let it happen.Your writer's block is over. And now, cnce you have written, use the advice, the strategies, the form, the ideas from the lessons and your own reasoning for the process of editing. Here you adhere to story archs, to paragraphs, to all wonderful things that a brilliant mind can beautifully piece together. It is so important in art to hold in high regard this hierarchy. First you turn off your head and write from your heart. Then, your heart can rest contented, as your brilliant mind re-enters for the beautiful process of editing (which is labor and art form in itself).Words first. Ideas later. Feel free to msg me if you have any further questions.
