What is writer's block? What's the definition of writer's block? Is it about being motivated to write or not knowing what to write next? We explore techniques such as free writing, writing games, motivation, muses and if you need them, as well top tips from Stephen King and other authors/bloggers. Find out about 7 ways to overcome Writer's Block including the strange of glass of water technique by Chuck Sambuchino, Jenni's earliest encounter with writer's block and if we should start a band to get published and what reality show we should go on to get famous.
