the best thing for writers...
is to take a break, do other activities, engage in other forms of expressive or even performance art, find other passion.
for example, when i am stuck, i paint, even if it isnt as good as my writing i do it. its still art, its still expressive and the best thing for a rutting writer is that form of expression.
but when youre stuck in writing, you burn out and cant even express your burn out, because your burned out.(take a shot every time i say burn out)
but seriously, try to express yourself in other ways, live life, do yoga, dance, sing and paint and anything else that would come as a form of expression too you.
trust me the writing would come to you.
stop chasing it, its just going to start running faster than you, dont be desperate because the readers will end up feeling the desperation in the writing.
if you want it finished, finish t, even if you dot feel like it or your stuck, but finish it with the thought that this is a natural flow, trick your brain to think that youre not stuck, youre active, youre writing.
dont obsess over structure, plot holes, if its character driven too much or not, just write it.
its okay if its not always sticking to the structure, its actually very good, t means its raw, its living.
writing is art, and art is supposed to be imperfect and raw, real art that is.
so just write the words, with the thought that there are no right or wrong words and get it done, and also, live a little, fuck the anti-social tendencies, they are holding you back from expression.
i needed this so you need it too, with love and respect, helia
