How do you deal with writer’s block?

In my experience, inspiration is everywhere and usually shows up when you least expect it. I keep a text file on my laptop and a notepad entry on my phone that’s filled with random ideas that pop into my head. Might be an idea for an article or story, might be a funny thought I had about potholes in the road, whatever.

I jot that stuff down because 1) I’ll forget that awesome sentence I just came up with a minute ago, and 2) I might be able to use that idea for something one day.

You will find inspiration in the weirdest of places, but that’s how it works. It’s like lightning; you’ve got to keep a bottle handy so you can catch it before it disappears like a fart in the wind.

When I’m feeling less than inspired or I’m in-between projects and not sure what to do with myself, I go and check out the stuff I threw into that file of random thoughts and notes. Something might strike a chord and lead me to write something amazing on a day when I felt that task was otherwise impossible.

Worst case, I grab my earbuds, put on some good music, and play solitaire on the computer. I play the game on auto-pilot, almost, and my mind freely wanders along with the music. No pressure because I’m not struggling to think of something to write about… if it happens, that’s great. If not, well… I just took some much-needed downtime for myself. Either way, I can feel good about it—and I'll see what tomorrow brings.

Alison Huff liked Carole L's review of The Color of Gravity: "I love it when I don’t guess the plot twist in a story before it happens. I didn’t see this one coming at all, and that’s the very best in storytelling. Plus, this book gave me characters to root for, and I need that to make the emotional connection " Read more of this review »

Quotes by Alison Huff (?)

“The connections we share with one another—the ones that mean the most to us—are never truly severed. Not across time, nor distance, nor death, even. The heaviness in your chest, that ache you feel right now, I like to believe that the strength of that emotion extends outward to somewhere far beyond us, touching those we’re missing in some way . . . wherever they are.”
― Alison Huff, The Color of Gravity
