It's not writers block... I just feel... Like I've reached an impasse. I have things I want to write about, But I can't seem to motivate myself enough to sit down and get them done..
I'm not sure what to do
give yourself a break, write when you can again,,,
You need a distraction, something to take your mind off things, perhaps a warm embrace, a longing gaze, and a soft kiss while a gentle hand strokes your soft hair...
What works for me is to ignore the laptop for a day or two but keep a notebook handy at all times. There are always quick moments of inspiration (something on the radio, in the news or an overheard conversation). These brief notes then prompt me back to the laptop and some new writing.
Don't worry about it - not many of us can simply write continually and I doubt any of us can write anything worth reading continually!
I get that too. Some days I am not only full of ideas, I can sit and write and turn them into hubs; other days, I get ideas but cannot for the life of me think how to write them down.
So, I just go with the flow, so to speak.
Writing doesn't have to be a everyday affair either set yourself a schedule and take it from there
Yeah maybe a break would help, but believe me it will come to you when you least expect it....
I often get ideas just when I'm talking to my husband or friends. I've found that the more I try to actually sit and think of ideas, the harder it is, for some reason!

Can someone PLEASE help me? I am getting confused and frustrated. I have 22 hubs. None are perfect in terms of SEO or promotion. Over the past 72 hours, I have gone in circles. Keywords, backlinks, additional websites, new hubs, more keyword research, writing new hubs etc. All of these I have done...

Oftentimes, I will start thinking about what I want to write about while running on the tread mill. After an hour of running, I pretty much know what I am going to write about. I composed it in my head. So when I return home, I either type it up in outline form to finish at a later date or I type...

What inspires you to write when you're feeling "stuck"?I would like to write at least one article or blog post a day. Sometimes ideas just come to me. Other times, I can't seem to string enough words together to form a sentence. How do you inspire yourself to write when you really don't...

Months ago I got accepted to Constant Content. Although, I do believe it's one of the more professional writing platforms on the internet; some of the editors are extremely strict. I actually quit writing for them for months and regret it, as I did manage to get over a dozen articles accepted. Now,...
