Hello to the cyber world!
I am an extremely new member (joined about, oh, ten seconds ago) and just introducing myself. I used to write all the time but in the past few months have just stopped. Now I want to start back up again but the writers block is killing me? Anybody else with this problem?

Hi and welcome to YWS!

I am sure most people have had the case of writer's block. Sometimes it takes months before you actually settle in and go back to writing.

I hope you enjoy it here! :D And if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask!

Welcome to YWS!

I totally understand the writer's block issue, it's been bothering me all year pretty much! Just gotta muddle through it, really. Hopefully being able to talk about your writing here on YWS might help, or at least it'll offer a new procrastination tool. XD

What genre do you like to write in?

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me or anyone else with a green or red username. We're here to help!

Welcome to YWS, writersblock!

This site really helped me with my writer's block when I joined, so hopefully just being able to chat and complain about the ups and downs of writing will help you considerably.

Like TriSARAHtops said, feel free to let us know if you have problems. :D
Live well. Learn lots. Question everything.

Awh, so sad that you joined under these circumstances! However, I hope that we will be able to fix you up good as new!

I've never had "writer's block" but I do have a snippet from the YWS newsletter Squills for you!
Spoiler! :
If you don’t know what to write, try a freewrite. Keep your hand moving constantly for five or ten minutes (or longer, if you find your groove). Don’t know how to start? Write “I don’t know what to write” over and over until it gets so irritating that you come up with an idea just so you won’t have to keep writing “I don’t know what to write.”

To read more, go here!


See you around! :D

Hello, extremely new member!

Welcome to the site and change your username and your writer's block is bound to leave!

No, I'm serious! :)
