Writer's block

Started this discussion. Last reply by Mary Jo Campbell Sep 13, 2010. 8 Replies

Anyone have a good example of using texting to replace dialogue or phone conversations?  I know it's what all the cool kids are doing.

"I think CJ Redwine did a fabulous job in Defiance with multiple narrators.  Strong characters to narrate too.   By the way, I've just completed my first MS, which happens to alternate narration between the two MCs.  "

"My novel PRAEFATIO has a prologue with a different narrator than the rest of the book. I wonder how that will work out. The Prologue continues during the course of the book as part of a passage in a book that the MC is reading. It is not narrated."

"I just take a deep breath. Then I take a break from my writing. I sit outside and enjoy nature for a while. When my mind is cleared, I let the ideas come to me. I don't try to strain my brain as much. And then I start up my writing again."

"I work on something else for a while or I just stop writing for a few days. Then I listen to a bunch of music that has the same feel as whatever I'm writing, then normally it works. Though I've been super unmotivated as of late :|"

"I think writer's block is an indication that you are not writing about the right thing. Move on. Do something different or head in a new direction. Free yourself from that obligation. Watch what happends."
