GAH!!! I've been stuck in the same part of a chapter of DWP that I JUST can't get past. What do your writers out there do when this happens?

Well, when I get a writers block, I usually draw or play video games. It usually works when you read comics or mangas to get out the messing situation.

when I get writers block on a particular story (which happens fairly often) is either A: go write something else (another story, a one-shot, fanfiction whatever) or B: I just plunge on and usually end up writing some awful dreck but then once I get past it and have caught my stride again go back to it during revision and do a rewrite.

A book I had to read for my English class was how to write, and a passage I love is *finds it*

"The first draft is the down draft- you just get it down."

Of course the passage is a lot longer, but that's the one you need right now. Just GET IT DOWN. Go back an be an anal dentist and fix all those disgusting sores later :)

Haha. Thanks that is a help. After I'm done would you mind reading through the chapter for me?
:iconericanii:
No sweat. I still haven't read through the other one you sent me ^^; but eh, life happens. *looks at watch* I actually have nothing to do right now. I should probably go and actually read it :XD: *does*
