Camp NaNoWriMo Day 3: "Writer's Block"

I refuse to believe in writer’s block. Why? I think there’s always a way around blocks, always a way to keep pushing past them. Just write write write. And if that doesn’t work, do some reading, listen to some music that relates to your characters or story, take a small break. Eat some candy. Do some exercise (burn off that candy!)

When I’m stuck on a scene, it’s usually because something’s off, or perhaps I’m not supposed to know what happens yet (sound crazy?). So I take a tiny break and do something else. And that’s when I’m usually struck with the answer — while I’m not scraping my brain for it. It is good to take a break sometimes, when you feel lost or are drowning in your little fictional world.

So, take a breather, and remember, if you refuse to believe in writer’s block, how can it affect you?

Keep writing!
