Zachary Steele I don't entirely believe in writer's block. If I'm not feeling inspired, then I listen to music, or take a walk (where I listen to music!). Sometimes you just need to clear out other thoughts, or remind yourself that you know how to get it done.
Zachary Steele Get involved in a writing community. Go to programs in bookstores. Make connections. Writing conferences are vital and can open so many more doors for you. And remember that if there is a cost to any of this, it is an investment in you. In your writing. And absolutely worth it.
Zachary Steele Music is the key for me. Depends on the scene I'm writing, but I keep an active presence on Spotify running through playlists to get the inspiration flowing.
