I Had Writer's Block... so I Wrote About Having Writer's Block
So I was having one of those days where I didn't know what to blog about on GOLOS. Sure there are tons of things I could write about but I'm always wanting to cover something new.
I was just sitting in my chair and staring at this box:
Minutes passed and I never wrote down a single thing. I am also distracted by other things that I am doing on the computer but I've been wanting to get a post done. I was having writer's block. It happens to almost everyone that writes and it can be a frustrating time.
So I decided to do just write about my writer's block and thought I would share some things I came across that could help if any of you are having this problem.
Writing about a writer’s block is better than not writing at all.
–Charles Bukowski
