Not blocked exactly but writing took too much energy. From what I've read from other writers, I'm not alone. Good luck with working through it or just giving yourself permission to unwind and step back. For a while.Diane Burtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03754105332297068271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481323769336692447.post-3666277044085100362021-04-08T09:58:47.335-04:002021-04-08T09:58:47.335-04:00Writer's block?

Alleviate the pressure from yourself by not expecting the writing to become “a thing.”<br />Good luck!Michelle Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02750092836481599870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3481323769336692447.post-60516946483127667472021-04-07T21:35:15.513-04:002021-04-07T21:35:15.513-04:00What Alex said.😂😂😂 And also, I second Diane.

With the direction this world is headed, the story might never get out there. But it’s a story I need to write, so maybe that’s my risk.)S.A.

I imagine I will get it from those who don't like anything religious and also from people of every theological angle I might not line up with exactly to their liking. <br /><br />I know my fear shows through the fact I've got 27 website pages written but only 3 or 4 visible. The rest I've buried after having them up for a while from fear of what people will think. I have 3 blog posts showing but over 80 I've buried because I am so uncertain of what I've written.

I try to read and watch TV for inspiration. And sometimes I give myself permission to just write 250 words just to get some words on the page. I usually end up writing for longer. Maybe doing other things you enjoy for a bit will help.Natalie Aguirrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03756087804171246660noreply@blogger.com
