Dion Anja
I had a terrible writing's block for about 3 years and it was awfully painful because I wanted to write but I just could not reach out to words. Then I realised, I was writing for an audience. For their satisfaction and feelings, not mine. I had to tell myself that my writing has to be personal, something that I should be enjoying. This change of perspective really helped me because before, I was thinking about that perfect intro or perfect depiction. Now, I write with the relief that I can always go back and work on it and as long as it pleases me, it is enough.
