Writer’s block

Writer’s block isn’t real.

At least not in the way we usually talk about it.

When it comes to the daily grind of writing, whether for clients or for yourself, writer’s block is a luxury you can’t afford.

You’ve probably heard the typical advice: take a walk, change your scenery, breathe in the fresh air.

But that’s not how you solve the problem.

That’s just another way to procrastinate, a quick escape that leaves the real issue hanging.

As a professional writer, I don’t worry too much about writer’s block.

When it’s time to write, you write.

Simple as that.

But does that mean I never face it?

Of course not.

Everyone does.

It creeps in like an itch, a slight irritation that you scratch, and then it’s gone.

I’ve been writing professionally since 2004.

Over the years, I’ve had my fair share of moments when words didn’t flow.

But here’s the truth: the more you write, the more resilient you become.

I don’t care much about being politically correct. Things are just right or wrong and yes, sometimes there are grey areas in this is why we write, don’t we?
