A tribute to writers

I find that I enjoy writing for the sheer freedom of it. I am expected to follow no rules if it means getting my point across, and I have limitless capabilities to tackle any solution

What a terrible thing to get writer's block with ideas in your head! I have so many good ideas, but I can't think of any way to flesh them out!



Pressing on... the point of this seemingly pointless rant is to put everything into perspective and explore your options in writing



Thank you for letting me release that little demon. I know it sounds pointless, but every time I write it relieves some kind of stress from my mind...

I don't believe in writer's block. If you can't flesh them out, it's either a problem with:

A. Inspiration
B. The idea
C. Your writing ability

If the story plays out like a movie in your head, and you just can't seem to get it onto paper, then try to listen to music or something to release those creative juices.

Another good idea if it's the writing part itself is to just write something inane for a while. Anything. As long as it's writing. That should make it easier for you to start writing your story once you've written or typed for awhile.

Eiji Tunsinagi is an unknown quantity at this point
I have the problem of having the idea, imagining it play out but suddenly not know what to happen at a certain point. When that happens, I just think of the most unexpected thing my character can do, and that usually pushed the story onward (if thats even a real word....ehHEM).
