VIDEO: Writer's Block Almost Killed Me

Writer's block was definitely the greatest crises of my life. In fact, I suffered from it so horribly that it almost killed me. Fortunately, over a four year period of trial and error experimentation, I developed practical methods on how to easily overcome that ailment. I chronicled these methods in my 2012 guide, "How To Overcome Writer's Block In Less Than An Hour" which is now available for FREE on Amazon Kindle until March 24. I wish I could make it permanently free but that is all the time Amazon will permit. If you don't suffer from writer's block or don't care because you don't write much then this is no big deal. However, if you are a writer who suffers from this common problem, this guide will be like a blessing. I only wish that such a guide was available when I suffered from writer's block.

It seems funny now but at the time it could have killed me or at least given me a concussion.

Glad you were able to overcome your writer’s block. We have benefited from it. :)

It was pretty miserable going for awhile there but once I overcame it, it was like entering paradise. I’ve been on a happy high ever since that burden was lifted.

I encountered a book on ‘writers block’ on the shelf, along with 15 others on the same subject, as well as within the trade magazones, in 1991.

It seems that in your case, you could not answer a letter, write a line or two in a greeting card, nothing. Since you could not write out a shopping list, how did you survive this long?

By inhaling cans of Raid daily. It built up my immune system.

Just finished your book. Good stuff. Will now put it to use and see how it works.

Quick question.

Do you recommend writing first in longhand instead of typing?

Yup! Write first in longhand. Somehow the act of your hand writing clicks with your brain. It's sort of a form of "auto-hypnosis" a word I avoided on purpose in my guide so as not to scare off the readers.

I can only imagine, since I don’t have a “writer’s” bone in my body! Hope it doesn’t ever happen to you again!
