How do you solve writer's block?

I'm always happy to help you out when you get writers block.

 

Make sure you actually have enough to write. There are times when your reporting may not be good enough and that's why you're struggling to write. Take a break and then go over your notes again.

 

What about when she has a cold sore?

 

Pretty sure I know how Hoppes solves it.

 

Jerk it til it falls off.

Oh, wait...that's how I try to solve all my problems.

 

I think writer's block is simply the dread that you are going to write something horrible. But as a writer, I believe that if you sit down at the keys long enough, sooner or later something will come out.

She?

 

Open a vein?

 

Son, I know you're not a regular 'round these here parts, but there's a new sheriff in town. And it ain't Reggie Hammond. We'll let you off with a warning this time, though.

 

What is the question, drip?

 

I think that's Drip's way of saying, "Tits or GTFO."

 

Start writing chronologically. I know The New Yorker gets lampooned for their ledes a lot, but it works. Almost every piece I write these days, I at least start the first draft with the word, "In (1993/September/the mid-1980s)" or "Last (fall/winter/January/year)."

Works like a charm.
