Sticky: The Writer's Block & Inspiration Thread

The only thing I ever get stuck on is the little things in my story like... How do I make Roger get to the show, should he take the bus or walk? and things like that. I am a perfectionist so it aways takes me forever to figure that kind of stuff out while in my head I will have the story itself completely figured out.

i i'm the same. i'm a real perfectionist. i wrote a book but its realy not finished yet. i've never had a writers block. if i'm tired i stop and pick it back up the next day. i make tabel of where i want to go. end if i'm out of ideas, i look at the tabel. to see where i'm going.
but i can get stuck at the fact if the lead person should slash around with a katana, dual knives or her nails. but that's not a writer's block is it?

Whenever I get writers block (which is quite often), I may not be able to find ideas, but that doesn't mean I would still not like to write. I found this website that gives prompts and it helps flex my writing once in a while so I write something and don't get so stuck (if ya know what I mean) and I stretch my ability.

Enjoy ^^ 4laugh wink xp whee xd 3nodding blaugh biggrin

finding inspiration has to come out of yourself. when you have another block. Just look up from your computer/paper and start looking for words. start looking for things that could fit in your story. and while your doing that. you're automaticly get "inspiration" if that word exualy exist. Just read your story. again. feel with your charecters.
how would they react?
Where would they go?
Why would they go there?
Feel with them and write with them

I get Writer's Block often, and so does my best friend, we have a tendency to do pretty strange things to make it dissappear. We're also both artists, so we have a lot of art supplies and weird ideas. A lot of the time we'll go into my art studio and scream and throw paint around, or soft vegetables. Just do something creative.
