-- Experiencing Writer's Block? --

Here are some techniques that Dave and I have used for dealing with writer's block or creativity fatigue:

- Make a list. Try not to keep everything in your mind at once or you may experience burn-out mentally. Simply make a list (or several lists) of what you plan to do and where you want this piece to take the reader.

- And sometimes - the writer just needs to grow into the piece; writers must learn that there are times when it is appropriate to just set it aside until we have the experience or skills in place to continue with it.

- Try just writing... Don't try to make sense, don't correct yourself as you are writing - just write. This can break a lot of barriers and open new aspects to the project that were not there before.

As promised, here is a continued list of 10 online groups for our writer friends to check out. I'll continue this list of groups for several upcoming JFW posts. These group titles are not hyperlinked... Copy the name and look each writer's group up on FaceBook, and then request to join each group via their Facebook group page.  I'll post 10 more next month.
