10 Tips For Avoiding Writers Block
by Melody
If you have days where you can’t think of a single thing to write about, these tips can help:
1. Some days are more creative than others. Always keep a notebook with you to jot ideas as they come to you
2. If a notebook isn’t handy, try using a mini recorder. They’re inexpensive and small enough to fit in your pocket or purse.
3. Write a review of a product or service you’ve recently used that would benefit your readers
4. Encourage your readers to submit questions so you can pull them from the “mail bag”
5. Post some feedback from a client and expand on the topic
6. Review previously written “tips” articles and expand on the individual tips
7. Create a “top” list. For example, “Top 10 Reasons to Outsource”
8. Read a newspaper, online news site or some articles in your industry for ideas
9. Review transcripts or recordings of interviews or seminars you’ve given in the past. Expand on the topics discussed.
10. Call a friend or family member. Simple conversation can sometimes get the creative juices flowing.
