Writer's Block Tip #2

• Start a new project

Sometimes you just get burnt out on the same old thing and need to change it up a bit.

The whole world is ADD nowadays. We are wired to direct our attention to multiple places for short periods of time. Twitter, Facebook, blogs, YouTube. Why should writing be any different?

Many writers work well with multiple projects, jumping back and forth between them. I always have several things going on at the same time. If I'm not feeling my horror script then I can write some comedy or even work on a short that I want to get filmed. Multiple projects also help me to sit down at the keyboard everyday and get something done, simply because I know there is so much to do.

So start something new or pick up something old. Your current project will be there when you come back.
