Overcoming Writer's Block

I mentioned my personal solution for this in another recent post, but it's worth restating:

Close your eyes, start typing. Alternately, turn off the monitor. Just start. Type anything. Get words on the page. Brain dump. Edit later.

There's nothing worse than a blank page!

I have tried this and it really works. It's a very messy brain dump but you get it there. Once the words are on the page, you can eventually make sense of them, somehow.
