Write everything that's causing noise in your head until you're too exhausted to think anymore. Write everything that's aching or spilling out from your heart until you feel completely numb.

Writers are sensitive people. They see the world differently. They notice the shades of crimson when other people simply see red. They sense the pain of a lonely man sitting at a table in the corner when other people just see some guy sipping coffee.

With all this intensity, it's easy to doubt yourself and wonder how you could ever be a writer. Take all that self-doubt and fear and make it into a person. Your inner critic, that mean old bastard. Put a face on him, give him a name, build him into a real person so you can visualize the one who holds you back. Then pack his bags and send him on a vacation for 30 days.

The book "No Plot? No Problem!" by Chris Baty inspired me to use this technique. That's a great book, by the way. He is the creator of NaNoWriMo and his book was what helped push me over the edge to start taking writing seriously.

By sending away your inner critic, you can then be free to write whatever you want. Write what's interesting to you. That's all that matters. The more you do it, the easier it will become to get your thoughts out there.

We all have stories to tell. Let's hear yours.(less)

Quotes by Nathan Bay (?)

“They were all together now, and a voice inside assured him that things were going to work out. He just had to be brave and see it through, even when he was scared of the uncertainty, or overwhelmed by his inability to know what the next day would bring. There was only one thing Roger had ever wanted in his life, and he could feel it radiating all around him:

Love. Forever.”
― Nathan Bay, Young Forever
