8 ways to beat writers block for stories
1. Do something creative Doing something creative can change your focus on how things were. Do a favorite hobby, or meditate, do something you love, it will take the mind of the problems and generate solutions 2. Prompts Create a set of inspiring prompts and write it down. It can be from google or your own. Make sure its inspiring, so that when you do have writers block you’ll have something inspiring to write about 3. Change POV This works literally and figuratively. Change the POV of your story, it can be from 1st person to third or vice versa, this will challenge the brain to think in both ways and create an effective story 4. Write aimlessly Write anything and everything that comes on the top of your head, this boosts creativity. Forget about spelling and grammar and just write away! After you do this your writers block would go away by at least 65% 5. Read If you’re in the middle of writing a story and suffer writers block, grab a book and start reading! You’d be amazed with all the writing tips and tricks you’d find in a book! 6. Take a walk Take a walk around the house, remind your self why you’re doing this, and what's it all about, walking and talking about a topic at the same time increases your activity in the body which increases your excitement for writing your story weather its good or not. It helps you think of where you went wrong or where you need improvement 7. Shower If you do not have the privilege or the facilities to walk then take a shower. I’ve seen people debate, rant and sing in the shower. Take time to think about what you’re writing in the shower and I guarantee by the end of it, you’d have a brand new lead for your story 8. Sleep If I’m suffering serious writers block, I sleep, I like to work on tough things with a fresh mind. I tend to be more creative when my mind is fresh. Hope any of these tips have worked for you!
