Overcoming a fear of writing

Re:Overcoming a fear of writing by GeneralMaximus on Thursday March 26, 2009 @01:46PM (#533809)

I just decided to write a lot. Even if it doesn't make sense (http://blog.uncool.in/2009/03/26/episode-1-perspective-shift...). I suppose after a month or so of writing crap, I'll be able to loosen up my rusty writing skills a bit and my writing will become more natural.

You might want to try that.

I agree. Commit to writing 3 pages a day, even if it is just repetitive nonsense and ramblings. Feel free to burn the notebook at the end of the month. After a few months of this, you just may find you have loosened things up a bit in terms of the old "the best is the enemy of the good" problem.

I have undertaken that same task; working at it for about a month. It gets easier. (http://dailymis.com/?p=55)
