Oh no! You've only got an hour left, and you haven't written anything! If you've got writer's block, then you are in big trouble! Somebody has paid you good money to write something, and you can't think of a thing! Sure, you might come up with sentence or two, but it's all wrong. If you wait any longer, your deadline will pass, and you'll lose that job. Pretty soon everybody will know. You won't be able to pay the rent. You'll start getting calls from your bank. Before long, you'll be out on the street! You'll try to write a sign that says, "Will Work For Food!" But you can't even write that!
If you start worrying like that, you are certainly in big trouble. Of course, the more you worry, the worse it feels. Getting writer's block is one of the biggest enemies to making a good living as a writer. If you could only get rid of it once and for all, you'd be in good shape, right? Of course you would! And guess what? You are about to get rid of it right here, right now!
Naturally, the biggest cause of writer's block is that big white blank space in front of you. The best solution? Fill it up with words. Any words. Just start writing. Here's a tip: Turn on the TV, or some YouTube video, but turn off the sound. Just write, as quickly as you can, and describe what's going on. This will easily get those juices flowing.
Pretty soon that brain juice will start to flow toward what you are supposed to be writing. Don't worry about editing just yet. Wait until you've gotten a few ideas out there. For now, just let whatever words in your brain want to come out. Don't be shy. Once your brain gets fired up, it will be like a self sustaining nuclear reaction destined for greatness.
If you don't have a TV nearby or YouTube is broken down, try this trick. Pretend the client is standing behind you. They are telling you what to write. Just listen to them, and write it down. If you feel the need to talk back to them, or ask questions, go right ahead. You'd be amazed how well this technique works. Just be careful that nobody sees you doing this.
Another trick is to come up with one word that describes what you are supposed to be writing bout. Google. Close your eyes and pick one of the results. Just move your mouse around and click something. Take five minutes reading whatever comes up. Then quickly write a summary, as fast as you can. It may not even be close, but it will get the juices flowing.
As long as you write something, anything, you'll be fine. But if you're going to sit there and wait for divine inspiration, you may be waiting for a long time.
