Just try Writing

From an old post on 43 Folders about writer's block:



On the other hand, remember Laurence Olivier.


One day on the set of Marathon Man, Dustin Hoffman showed up looking like shit. Totally exhausted and practically delirious. Asked what the problem was, Hoffman said that at this point in the movie, his character will have been awake for 24 hours, so he wanted to make sure that he had been too. Laurence Olivier shook his head and said, "Oh, Dusty, why don't you just try acting?"


So, when all else fails, just try writing.
