Writer's block is like constipation. But there usually is a cure. I'm sure you know the cure for constipation-jumping on a trampoline. Ha! As for writer's block, however, consider what Lios Duncan says in \u003ci\u003eHow to Write and Sell your Personal Experiences\u003c\/i\u003e: I have noticed in myself that writer's block most frequently occurs after a time of emotional spending. When I first realised that I had found the man I was going to marry, I could not write. (1979, p. 196) The first thing to do when you find yourself a victim of writer's block is to accept it for exactly what it is; not the end of the world, but a rejuvenation period. Let yourself rest. Be good to yourself. Call it a vacation. (p. 196)... \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe author \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eDan Lukiv, published in 19 countries, is a poet, novelist, columnist, short story and article writer, and independent education researcher (hermeneutic phenomenology).
