What Is Writer's Block

  • Writers block varies in intensity from very
    severe wherein one even abandons ones career, to
    mild and temporary which happens with most. So
    whats the worry? Most writers go through it at
    one time or another. The most common causes found
    for it are lack of inspiration, financial
    pressure, depression, illness, and a sense of
    failure. This also comes as a handy excuse to
    avoid thinking about what to write.

  • Writers block is a relatively modern notion, and
    the term was first coined in 1947 by Dr. Edmund
    Bergler, a famous Austrian psychiatrist living in
    New York City. These days, it is well accepted
    that its notion arose in conjunction with the
    sudden prestige of psychiatry in the United
    States after World War II.

Creative block can be Selective
  • Writers block is generally seen in college and
    university students who consistently fail to turn
    in their written assignments. In such cases,
    procrastination is a major component of writers
    block. It is believed procrastination is learned,
    so education specialists claim that it can be
    unlearned. Among other things, perfectionism is
    also blamed for the block it encourages some
    procrastination, and together these both promote
    writers block.

Cure For Writers Block
  • Writers block has been assessed even in
    individuals who speak languages other than
    English. In most cases, creative block appears to
    be related to premature editing and to a lack of
    strategies for dealing with complex writing
    tasks. It is found that developing a strategy
    before the actual writing helps some individuals.
    Having a pre-planned structure eases the stress
    of writing and results in a better organized and
    flawless article. The ease of cut and paste makes
    attaining the desired structure easier today than
    in the past. The use of a computer with
    word-processing capabilities helps reduce
    creative block. Spelling is also closely related
    to the ability to write. The computer software
    that automatically correct spelling may help
    overcome writers block.
