One thing I hate more than anything in this world is writer's block! It comes on so suddenly and doesn't seem to go away, just wants to sit and chill for a long period of time. Recently I have had this happen to me far too much and for a while I got nothing done. I would just sit and stare at my page, and that was about it. While the tips I am about to share with you may not actually help you to write out everything in a post, this will at least help you to come up with post ideas.

I have a ton of unpublished posts that I have been working on and when I feel they are ready they will be posted. Sometimes it takes days and sometimes it takes weeks. But it is much better than having nothing at all. So, I hope that this will help you when the unfortunate strikes!

Thanks for sharing Leah! I also found the free-writing exercise pretty powerful to overcome writer's block, you may want to try that out too :)

Oh cool. I'm trying so hard to not go off and learn anything anywhere else until I've worked through all the training here - and there's so much am not sure I'll ever be done. Hehe.

Thanks, Leah. I found this most informative and useful. I don't necessarily come short of things to post about as much as I do when it comes to the actual writing. I'm not a very talkative person so it is a definite challenge for me to get conversational in my posts.

All the best,

Brian

Thanks,,.writers block is horrible...I know it, I have been there and step all the time back to it...the worst is when you know exactly what you want to write about, you have your keywords set...but then the big empty nothing....
Will check out Udemy for those courses...good tip!!!

Yes, I hate sitting and staring and the words won't come out. Especially when you know what you want to say, but not how to say it! That is where I have got really good at creating potential posts...Titles, couple headings...save for later lol
