  • Writer's block?

    writersblock Writer's block--what is it really? There are so many things that I want to say and so many things that I want to write and I look at my screen and my mind goes blank, especially when trying to fulfill my dream of writing materials for live online language training. Is it fear of failure and/or success that keeps me from writing the things I want to write or is it just that I am out of practice? One of the reasons, I'm making an attempt to write on both of my blogs on a daily basis is that I want to stop this block I seem to have gotten and so I'm forcing myself to write these simple little blog posts (that I rarely proofread). I remember one of the things from my 'teaching writing' classes in graduate school was to just have the students write on a daily basis and even if they don't show it to the teacher, they will begin to improve because 'practice makes perfect' after all.
