Writers Block

I signed up for April Script Writing Month from my friends at Nano (national Writers Month).   The column of advice from Lydia Carnell was excellent.  I recommend all of you writers to check it out.  The key paragraph was:


But in the mortal realm, here is some practical advice: when you’re on a deadline, just sit down and turn on a kitchen timer. Set it for 20 minutes, and do not move until you’ve written a sentence, a paragraph or a page. Act as if a benevolent force of love exists that is always guiding you. Ask this force, the Universe, your Source, your loving higher Power, your inner-self, for the next indicated sentence. Write down the first thing that comes into your mind. This will help you to let go, face your writer’s block, and get back on track.
