In being a writer, you have to be patient and steadfast. Like John Heywood's A Dialogue Conteinyng the Nomber in Effect of all the Prouerbes in the Englishe Tongue states "Rome was not built in a day," and neither were your skills. Being a writer takes time, dedication, and a love for the field. Writers ultimately know that they may or may not make a living off of writing. Writers also know that millions may read their writings or just their family or friends. You have to prepare for who you want to read your work and how it is presented.

Melica Niccole I usually deal with writer's block by taking a break from writing. I love writing dearly and if I could do it all the time, I would.

In order for me to continue to write with such passion, I have to allow my brain to tell me when its time to take a break from writing, reading, and a doing things that goes hand-in-hand with my passion; writing.
