Often when it comes to periods where I'm less inspired to write, the problem has nothing to do with writing. For example, if you're busy and overwhelmed throughout the day, when it comes to sitting down to write in the evening it's difficult. It's not that you're not inspired but instead that your mind is … Continue reading Why you’re not inspired to write

Writing through writers block
When you feel stuck and don't quite know what to write, instead of shying away from it, follow it. Start typing and just see what happens. Don't focus on how good or bad it is. Don't focus on whether it'll be worth sharing online or what people will think. Just write and then write some … Continue reading Writing through writers block
Running out of ideas
When it comes to blogging, daily blogging in particular, there are endless ideas of what you can write about. But unless you're keeping a journal it'll be beneficial to keep what you share within a category, niche or even a few words. However, it may even seem too difficult to narrow down what you write … Continue reading Running out of ideas
Struggling to write
After a week or so of struggling to write I got my flow back, the words began to pour. I began to think about how difficult it had been to post everyday that previous week, until I caught myself and realised why I hadn't been able to write as easily. I'd stopped writing.

When you’re not in-flow
Having a daily writing practice means that writers block isn't an excuse I can use. There are days when writing feels a little more rigid and I suppose I feel 'blocked' but I don't feed it because whether I feel in-flow or totally out of flow I still have to write and share something. I … Continue reading When you’re not in-flow
Where I go
I feel like anyone that blogs daily has this mental space that they go to when they're writing. For me I tap into my inner monologue. It's always running and so I simply stop and pay attention to it for long enough to write a hundred words or so. For the most part it's easy … Continue reading Where I go
It might not be writers block
If you want to write something but nothing good comes to mind, you might think say that you have writers block. And so perhaps you take a break from writing, convinced that you have nothing good in you to pour out at this time. But you'll be back to writing once the cloud clears and … Continue reading It might not be writers block
3 Months of daily blogging!
Time has flown by and one thing that I can tell you about daily blogging is that it's not as difficult as I thought it would be. The act of coming up with something to write every single day and sharing it is more enjoyable than challenging. I thought I'd get 'writers block' but any … Continue reading 3 Months of daily blogging!
